MAYOR, COMMISSIONER TO
DANCE AMONG THE STARS
Sarasota, FL – Mayor Fredd “Glossie” Atkins
and Commissioner Lou Ann Palmer will glide their way across
the dance floor as they compete for top honors at “Dancing
Among the Stars”, a benefit for Genesis Health Clinics.
Mayor Atkins and Commissioner Palmer are two of eight local
celebrity dancers who will participate in the event Sun.,
November 5, 2006 at 6pm at Chelsea Center, 2506 Gulf Gate
Drive.
The evening is based upon ABC’s popular television
program, “Dancing with the Stars”. Similar
to that show, the charity event will pair local celebrities
with a professional dancer. They will have 90 seconds to
impress the judges and the audience with a dance of their
choice. It could be a waltz, tango, samba, hustle --- anything!
Mayor Atkins and Commissioner Palmer have been taking
dance lessons for the past six weeks, compliments of Gotta
Dance Studios in Nokomis. Mayor Atkins hopes to wow the
judges with the Mambo. Commissioner Palmer, a former dancer
and choreographer, is keeping her routine hush-hush until
the event.
