Student organizations and faculty/staff departments will have a great time dancing to 12 themed music styles (i.e. Zumba, Glow Race, Ballroom, Two-Stepping, etc.) throughout the night in an effort to raise money for the educational purposes of the <b>Commerce Boys and Girls Club</b>. <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:12.0pt'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:12.0pt'>If you are interested in dancing the night away to a great cause that supports the local Commerce community, we encourage you to sign up a team of 3 dancers (or you can sign up as an individual dancer). <b>Registration for the event opens October 1<sup>st</sup>, 2013</b>.
