First Ever Metro D.C. 'Dancing with the CEOs' Saturday

Twelve of the Washington, D.C. region’s top executives will take to the dance floor this Saturday in “Dancing with the CEOs,” an amateur dance competition fundraiser to benefit five area nonprofits.

CEOs will compete to win a donation for local charities committed to funding childhood cancer research including Bite Me Cancer, Camp Special Love, Loudoun Therapeutic Riding, Smashing Walnuts and Stillbrave.org.

Paired with local young dance professionals, each executive received eight sessions with a professional dance instructor from Arthur Murray Dance Studio. The top five teams will each receive a donation for their chosen nonprofit organization and event attendees will choose a people’s choice award winner, who will receive an additional donation for their nonprofit of choice.

“It is such an honor to be able to give back to five local organizations that provide so much support to area families,” said event organizer Joey Darley. “Words can’t begin express my gratitude for the services they provide to our community.”

The event takes place Saturday, Sept. 13 from 6 p.m. to midnight at the West Belmont Place Event Center in Leesburg’s National Conference Center. Attire is black tie optional.

General admission tickets to the event cost $150. To purchase tickets and view a complete list of participants, visit www.dancing-4acause.com.
