We’re starting the fun BEFORE the event with
The FADS Greatest Race

We’ve split 12 FADS International Dance Council
Members into 4 teams of 3 to see which team
can enroll the most participants in VIC.
They’ll report from the field each week
on their progress, and the winning team
gets a cash prize, a traveling trophy
and (of course) bragging rights!
Follow along to see all the shenanigans,
ribbing, and fun that’s sure to ensue...
which team are you rooting for?
And of course, join the fun at VIC - there’s still plenty
of time before the January 8 deadline...
it’s virtually that easy!
