We are moving along nicely with the FAST TRACK program and the new dancers are doing great. We couldn't do it without the "Angels" and better yet it's great when visiting clubs come out.
​Thank you to Leduc Homesteaders Club for visiting and stealing back your mascot. It looks like we will have to pay a visit soon to take it back.
