“The Studio 42 Dance Team, based in Mason Valley, Nevada, had an amazing and successful week at the Starbound NATIONALS dance competition!

We took 14 routines who qualified at Starbound Regionals to the Nationals event. There were participants from all over the west coast competing for National titles!

Piper & Quinn took an ELITE GOLD 2nd place over all in their duet “Hit the Road Jack”!

Aubry took a HIGH GOOD 5th overall in her SOLO “ Tap Those Toes”!

Our Pre-Teen large group “ Hey Mickey” took a HIGH GOLD 10th overall in category.

All of our additional numbers scored Gold or higher and showed a HUGE amount of growth through their scores.

Through a Child’s Eyes Foundation is very proud of all of our dancers and so thankful for Ms. Cathe Faretto & Ms. Staci Carlson for putting in HOURS & HOURS of time and dedication! Congratulations to all!
