Logan Dancers Compete at the Halloween Feis


Congratulations to all of our dancers who competed at Feile Samhain, the Halloween competition, held in Portland, Oregon the weekend of October 25th & 26th! Samhain was the Irish predecessor to Halloween, and in the spirit of the holiday, adjudicators, musicians and competitors alike came dressed in costumes, including adjudicator Dr. John Cullinane and our own Terena Lund as John McCain and Sarah Palin!

The distinguished panel came from England, Ireland, Canada and the United States, with the dancers from Logan taking top marks out of over 500 competitors! The capstone event, the Costume Reel, saw Mary Poppins and Snow White and the Seven Dwarves take home top prize. In addition, the event's two charitable specials raised over $900 for Doernbechers Children's Hospital and over $1200 for the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Research Foundation.

Congratulations again and see you all at the next feis!
