INDIAN RIVER COUNTY — Put on your dancing shoes and head over to The Humane Society of Vero Beach and Indian River County on Sunday, Feb. 2. That’s when the shelter will be holding its first “Dance for a Cause” dance exhibition.
With Robert Scott serving as the event’s DJ, this exciting exhibition will include professional and amateur exhibitions of ballroom, swing and formation dances.
Local pro and amateur dancers will also be paired up for performances.
An intermission between acts will give spectators the chance to step onto the dance floor for general dancing.
“I really wanted to bring something to Vero Beach that would combine both my passions: dancing and animals,” said Humane Society volunteer and “Dance for a Cause” coordinator John Thompson.
Thompson has been involved with many dance exhibitions across the country and saw this event as a fun way to help the shelter fulfill its mission of protecting Indian River County’s animals.
Participants can register through local dance studios as well as by calling The Humane Society at (772) 388-3826.
Tickets for dancers and spectators are $55 per person and include admission, hors d’oeuvres and an open wine and beer bar.
Although advance ticket reservations are encouraged for all attendees, a small number of tickets for spectators will be available at the door.
