Dancing With the Local Stars Muskegon Reveals This Years Cast

Dancing With the Local Stars is a big deal. A REALLY big deal and it's become one of the fastest growing and most impressive charity events in Muskegon. It's an event 9 years old and the amount of money raised for local food banks is staggering. In 8 years $629,000 dollars have gone to help those who would otherwise go without. That's over HALF A MILLION DOLLARS!

WOW!

Shop Downtown Muskegon Saturday the 26th

The event is sponsored by the Women's Division Chamber of Commerce in Muskegon and it's only one element of some of the things they put on. We've visited with them about Dancing With the Local Stars as well as Downtown Dancing, the Trinkets and Treasures sale at the Folkert Community Hub...the list goes on and on and the impact in Muskegon is big.

As we gear up for the event itself that happens Feb 23rd- 25th at the Holiday Inn Downtown, there are a couple of things that need to happen. 1st, the area food pantries need to apply to be a beneficiary of the event. Second... we need to know who this years "Local Stars" are and who they're paired up with to cut a rug with a "Latin Flair" this year!!

I was invited by Christina Fecher who's the publicity co-chair to Tanglewood Park to find out more details and to be part of the "big reveal" of this years cast!! We were joined by event co-chairs Mary Kendall who is the chair of the event. Take a listen to find out more below!

A big deal....getting bigger and the amount of people impacted by the funds raised is beyond measure when it comes to taking care of our own. The Women's Division Chamber of Commerce is something to be very proud of in Muskegon is you are a member or just a participant in all their activities!
