As we close the chapter on this year's Beach Bash we are reminded of the joy, love, and connections that define our dance community. 

It’s always bittersweet to say goodbye to the magical world we create together, it’s a world we cherish because of you - our dancers, our incredible team, and our dedicated officials.

This year, however, was unlike any other. In the midst of the celebration, we were faced with an unimaginable loss. Annabelle Martin, a beautiful soul and talented dancer, left us too soon. We are so grateful to have her vibrant spirit to have graced our dance floor, and her memory will forever be a part of our journey.

Through this challenging time, we witnessed the remarkable strength of our wonderful team, our judges and officials and the hotel staff. Together, they worked tirelessly and compassionately, ensuring that the event continued smoothly and that every guest and competitor had a meaningful experience. Their professionalism, unity, and care helped create a space where we could all come together to honor Annabelle and celebrate the love of dance.

To everyone who participated, cheered, worked behind the scenes, and brought all their amazing positive energy to this event, thank you. Your compassion and passion for ballroom dancing make our world truly special. We are endlessly grateful for you.

Let us carry Annabelle’s light forward, in every step we take and every dance we share.

With all our love and gratitude,

The Beach Bash Team
