THE POWER OF DANCE SCHOLARSHIP $2000
Recipient - Maddie Russell

This scholarship was created to honour the memory of Logan Russell, a talented dancer and choreographer who tragically lost her life this year. Logan was the sister of Krissy and Laurie Russell, two of our dance moms, and a beloved aunt of our students, Alexandria, Macie, and Maddie.

This scholarship will be given annually to a senior level dancer and may be used for dance training, professional development, or post secondary education. Our goal is to help our dancers stay on the right path, pursue their goals, and build their futures.

We want to thank Jeff, Paige, and Lyla Briand, from Island Movers & Storage Ltd & Lyla's Mobile Signs, for partnering with us on this scholarship and donating a generous $1000! We can’t thank you enough!

This year, we felt that the perfect person to receive this scholarship was Logan’s niece, Maddie Russell.
