A big "Thank you" to Mr. John Kimmins, President of the Arthur Murray Dance Studios,U.S.A.
for donating $2,500 (Two Thousand,five hundred USdollars) to the "Irish Dancesport Competitors Corporation".
Tommy Shaughnessy, is leading a fund raising campaign to help the Irish competitors,and is delighted with the support from the U.S.A.

To Tommy we give our heart felt gratitude, not only is he putting in the time and effort with the dancers, now he is a leading light in progressing Irish dancesport to a new level and onto the international scene.

For those who are not aware, The "Irish Dancesport Competitors Corporation" is a new organisation formed by the Amateur competitors to promote dancing in Ireland, to bring in foreign coaches for specific training and to support the dancers themselves. We wish them the very best in this exiting & new innovation.
