Fordney Foundation Presents the 2017 Team Match

It is our pleasure to present to you the East coast (blue) versus West coast (red) team match.  As you know, this is our annual team match competition which takes place at the Ohio Star Ball.  This year was no disappointment, it was an exciting dance off  to the finish!

We had bear mascots who initiated cheers and claps and waved pompoms. There was a parade of the teams around the perimeter of the dance floor with Mrs. Fordney leading.
