It gives me great pleasure to personally invite you to participate in the11th Annual Cincinnati Dancesport Festival on August 14-16, 2008. Every year since its inception, it has been our intention to constantly improve this event and it has always been a priority to dispense a warm welcome and VIP treatment to those in attendance. This year promises to be an exciting event. As in past events, there will be $22,000 available in prize money, many scholarships available for both pro/am and amateur couples, and participation in the DanceSport Series championship. The competitor packages have been sent out and you may access the information through the Competitors section here on our website. An added event, again this year, don't miss The Annual Midwest Imperial Congress of the U.S. Branch of the Imperial Society of Teachers of Dancing. This full day event will be held on Sunday August 17th following the Cincinnati Dancesport Festival. Please see our Highlights for further information about this exciting addition. Each year our Competition gets better than the last.  To make sure you don't miss out on important details and news, be sure and subscribe to our Cincinnnati Dancesport News & Updates email list.  All email addresses are kept private and used only to notify you of news and updates about our upcoming events!
