DMA FL Scholarship Clinic

This year’s DMA Florida Scholarship Clinic was one of our best yet! Twirlers learned new tricks and combinations, made wonderful memories, and celebrated their efforts with Hardest Worker awards. The event raised money for DMA scholarships and bonds for our DMA Florida State winners.
 

A heartfelt thank-you to guest instructor Jennifer Marcus Schwartz and instructors Yvonne Pedersen, Emma Grumelot (2026 Sr. Queen), Lisa Hoffmaster, Kristina Daidola, Cassie Kilroe, and Danielle Payne for making this day and event  so special!
