Scholarship Winners: Evah Henderson, Staff of the Year Lydia McLean, Dancer of the Year Shelby Woolever, Perseverance Award
Lydia McLean, Dancer of the Year
From the Desk of Miss Ashley, Studio Owner & Director
Each year, I select one dancer to win a full tuition scholarship at my dance studio. The winner is announced at our Saturday Matinee performance, and spends the next year volunteering as an ambassador of the company.
This year, Miss Lydia most certainly earned that title.
