Miss Vicki Says Good-Bye

We are so sad to say good-bye to Vicki Hoban, our Razzle Dazzle evening teacher.

Miss Vicki has moved to Colorado with her husband Travis and daughter Maylee. Travis received a fabulous job offer in a resort town outside of Denver, which they accepted at the end of December.

Vicki was so sad to leave her beautiful dancers, but excited to start a new adventure with her family!

We will miss her and wish her the best!!!!
