Were You There?


I have a favorite image from our Camp Fair on April 12. The Sho Stoppas, this amazing group of hip hop dancers from Lexington, performed on our stage during the Fair. They were just unbelievable! These girls won a competition in New York on the BET network and actually got to perform for Janet Jackson.


After they performed for the Fair visitors I sent these beautiful girls over to our Cover Model Search booth to have their photos taken by the Portrait Shoppe. They were all dressed in black Janet Jackson t-shirts and jeans with chains hanging from their waists.


After they got their pictures made the girls met the staff at the Kentucky DanceSport booth which was right across from the photographer. This is a new dance studio in Lexington where they teach latin and ballroom dancing to families, adults and kids alike. They had set up a mini dance floor and were teaching folks to dance. These ladies were dressed in these gorgeous sequined ballgowns. I'm not sure how it happened but all of a sudden the Sho Stoppas were doing their dance routine again just for the Kentucky DanceSport folks. It was so cool to see these two completely diverse dance groups make a connection. And our visitors to the Fair just loved it.

Ronald McDonald was my daughter's favorite. She was amazed to see this "TV Star" in person.
