Dancer wanted for fun 4-weekend gig!

On Point National Dance Competition is an amateur dance competition for youth ages 4-18. When a dance competition venue is set up the doors are opened and hundreds of dancers arrive with their talents and enthusiasm. At the Director’s queue, the first routine is called to the stage and there is an anticipatory silence but when the music starts the building comes alive with unmatched energy and excitement that lasts the entire weekend! On Point is seeking talented, hardworking crew members to create this experience with us. Join us in having fun and making memories with this year’s dancers!!
