☘️☘️☘️SENIOR SPOTLIGHT☘️☘️☘️

Caroline is a “Johnston Lifer.” Her older sister Michaela started classes when Caroline was a baby, and she clocked countless hours at the Guzman’s location watching first the one, then the next big sister practice, before she finally got her turn to start when she was five. In competition, she worked her way up to Open Champion, and enjoyed many years of Oireachtas, Nationals, local feising, and even online feising. Caroline loved her ceili teams, and especially enjoyed the years she got to compete on a team with older sister Beth. A lifetime of dance-out seasons has given her an appreciation for the service aspect of performing, and she considers the dance-outs in schools and senior homes over the years to be some of her favorite memories. Caroline attends Fayetteville-Manlius High School, where she is a part of the FM Chorale and Swing jazz vocal ensemble. She has been a part of various vocal competitions, and All County and Area All State choirs. After graduation, she will attend Marist University to study Elementary and Special Education. Caroline is grateful to Ann and Patty for giving her a dance family to grow up in, for giving her all the opportunities to perform, provide service, and compete, and for sharing their love of Irish dance.

Thank you Caroline and the Casey family for being a part of our dance family!!!
Please come help us celebrate Caroline and our other dancers this Saturday night at our Hooley☘️☘️☘️
