RSF BLOG

We just had the latest RSNC competition in Greenville, SC and I’m still recovering! The 2nd annual Greenvile Newcomers Challenge rocked the house until well past midnight! The GNC had something for everyone! Held at the beautiful Hyatt Regency on Main in Greenville, all our RSF Club members gathered the night before to hang out at the music festival in the tree-lit courtyard and grab a bite to eat at the local Grille 33. Taking the time to develop friendships with fellow dancers is an important draw to all these RSF events.
Dancers from all over came to compete and have fun, challenging each other for the RSF Senior American Smooth and Rhythm Closed scholarships. I was so impressed with the Superstar treatment everyone received during the evening session. All dancers were announced and brought up on stage through the back curtains and given the spotlight. The Pro-Am Sr. Rhythm winners were Tami Blaudeau and Sterling Burroughs of Birmingham, AL. What a classy lady! Thomas and Ann Yearian of Atlanta won the Amateur couple Sr. Rhythm. As always, they brought their hot and spicy personalities to the floor. The elegant Doris Armstrong and David Wood of OKC won the Sr. Pro-Am Smooth and their fellow Sooners, Gary and Janella Tears won the Amateur Sr. Smooth.

We need to say “Congratulations” to all the dancers! Their energy and enthusiasm didn’t falter throughout the day and their love of their sport was evident in the smiles on their faces… even at 1:00am when they congregated at the potato bar midnight buffet/party! As we get more pictures in, I’ll be sure to share some here along with more news and info on the blog. Until then, check the Decadance Photography website for all the great shots of the Greenville dancers.
Keep Smiling!
