Subject: The Line Dance Marathon

From: Scott Blevins
Seems like the 2024 Line Dance Marathon has come and gone in the blink of an eye, but I think it’s safe to say, memories were made that will last a life time!!!
 
Thank you to all who support the event year after year and to those who gave us a try for the very first time.  The feedback we have received has been positive, complimentary and much appreciated. We hope you plan to join us for our 31st year, being held May 29 - June 1, 2025 in Raleigh-Durham NC. The theme will be
      “Diabolical Disney”
A Taste of the Dark Side
 
A big thank you to our instructors/choreographers, Dj’s, support team and volunteers for going above and beyond to make the event a complete blast for everyone! YOU ALL ROCK!!!! Looking forward to doing it again next year.
 
The official announcement of the 2025 instructor lineup, as well as the opening of the hotel block, will be coming soon, so keep an eye out.
 
Thank you again!!!
Scott Blevins and Jean Garr
 

Subject: New York State of Line (NYSOL)

From: Rosie Multari

NYSOL 2024 is 5 months away, Nov 7-10th and besides our usual Stellar Staff we also have Amy & Darren Bailey and Jonno Liberman joining us this year! Many of you have told me they heard NYSOL was sold out. The main hotel was Sold Out during NYSOL 2023 BUT the venue, Villa Roma Resort, has over 200 Condos available on the property. They are priced lower because they're offsite BUT they are not far from the hotel, less than a 5 minute walk OR you can be shuttled door to door, on demand, 24 hours. Another great advantage of the Condos, they have 2 or 3 bathrooms that can accommodate groups of 4 or more at a significant savings. Call the Resort at 1-800-727-8455 ext 1 and ask for Heidi.
Meanwhile here's a video of Darren Bailey from the 2024 Marathon show!

**I know that many of you have been having some issues on the main floor with it being "sticky" management has been made aware and they're actively trying to find the best solution, to help maintain the integrity of the dance floor to be clean/safe, and also more easily danced on. without it feeling "waxed" and sticky. (Please do NOT put anything on the dance floor such as powder/dance wax, etc. This is NOT good for our floor, or the machines that clean it.)**

**Fuego Dance shoes** 10% off code =  <TrevorT10>
These shoes have been taking over the Line dance community by storm! Everyone is getting them, and I love hearing the feedback STILL about how people are enjoying & still loving their new Fuego's 

I highly recommend checking out "Fuego's". I've placed their website here. 
Fuego Dance Shoes
 Just use promo code TREVORT10 at checkout, to get yourself 10% off! 

I have these shoes in both all white and all black, and I actually wear them as regular everyday shoes too. I love that they're actual dance shoes without having to be suede on the bottoms. Less likely to get messed up! They boast about how you can dance "anywhere" concrete pads/asphalt/driveway/dance floor.. they're also right. you really can. While also having comfort and support. Many people have asked- "yes, they fit true to size" IF you wear Insoles in your shoes, buy 1/2 size up. 

 Anyway- you can check them out for yourself! 
***I have a promo code you can use to get a discount as well!***
Promo code TREVORT10 at checkout. ;)
