    Thank you for publishing the photo and story of these young adults who volunteered to put together a ribbon dance to honor the Special Olympics Athletes who were going to dance at the Special Olympics Indiana DanceSport Championships hosted by USA Dance Fort Wayne Dancesport Championships. Ballroom dancing is not new to these ribbon dancers as they belong to Fort Wayne Dancesport a local social ballroom dance chapter of USA Dance and their desire to show their support for the newest dancers in DanceSport is outstanding and a credit to these young adults. Good for them and Great of you to report their efforts. And outstanding of Luke Holliger to volunteer to choreograph and train these outstanding young adults. Thanks to all of them!
