And we're back...we returned to Columbus, Ohio for the 2021 Ohio Star Ball. This meant the return of the Fordney Foundation sponsored Best of the Best. After qualifying at numerous competitions throughout 2021, our Junior and Youth dancers bring their show to the Ohio Star Ball. All the glam, costumes, and uniquely choreographed routines were on full display during the Friday evening show at the Ohio Star Ball.
In the end, these 3 outstanding couples were crowned the winners of the 2021 Fordney Foundation Best of the Best. If you weren't lucky enough to see it live, here's your chance to watch these amazing performances. Enjoy!

The Fordney Foundation is proud to be offering double points in 2022.
In addition, our American Smooth & Rhythm events will now be up for cash awards. See our website for more details.
**We have received contributions from individuals who would like to have a dear relative or friend who passed on remembered that loved to dance or was a dance aficionado. We call these memorial contributions. Perhaps you would like to have someone memorialized in this manner. Make a donation and give us their name. We have on our website a yellow brick road to add their name to a brick as a memorial to that person. This contribution will assist future generations of dancers and help keep young people more positive and healthy.
