My personal message:

Celebrity Dancer: Gretchen Bartlett

Age: 28
Occupation: STAR 102.1 Midday Host (not Goddess) & Journal Broadcast Group Promotions Director
 
What is your dance experience: 
"Does doing the chicken dance count? 10 years in ballet, tap, jazz and modern; 8 years on high school and collegiate dance teams; Universal Dance Association All-Star 1997".  It might sound impressive, but I am now out of shape with a bum knee.  But I'm trying really hard!
 
Why are you doing this event? 
"We’ve been talking about doing something like this for almost two years now. I’m addicted to the show “Dancing with the Stars” and of course, it’s a great fundraiser for East Tennessee Children’s Hospital."
 
Why should people vote for you/donate?
"The money goes to help kids in our area that really need our help, so that is a no-brainer. Choose Mark and me because we’ve worked our rear ends off to put together a fun routine and because Mark deserves a trophy after having to train me!"
 
See info below about my professional dance partner...

Age:  Over 21
Occupation:  Dance Instructor/Competing professional

Dance Experience: Regional Championship American Rhythm Gold medalist; National Amateur Rhythm Bronze Medalist; National Professional 9 Dance Finalist; Two Top Teacher Awards in last 6 months at competitions

Why are you doing this event?
"All I need is music to dance but this time I am putting my heart and soul into it for the kids."

Why should people vote for you/donate?  "Because Gretchen is going to earn your respect and every penny that comes in."
