Dancing With Our Heroes

The Fred Astaire Franchised Dance Studios of New England are 
partnering together for a fund-raising “Dancing with Our Heroes” Gala to be 
held Sunday, November 10, 2013 at the Connecticut Convention Center in 
Hartford.

The event will feature general dancing, a sit-down dinner, a 
silent auction, a professional show and the “Dancing with Our Heroes” 
competition. The proceeds of the event will be donated to The Friends of Fisher 
House Connecticut for the construction of a Fisher House on the grounds of the 
West Haven VA. The goal is to raise $200,000.

The 
“Dancing with Our Heroes” competition will be a Ballroom & Latin dance 
competition between our military heroes, who will each be partnered with a 
professional dance instructor. Each participating Fred Astaire Dance Studio 
will provide the instructors and free lessons to help the hero prepare for the 
competition. There will be no cost to the hero for participation. Winners will 
be selected by audience votes and a panel of celebrity judges
