The Light Dance!

Is always the biggest hit of the evening. The lights are turned off in the gymnasium and the music starts in the almost total darkness and the glow sticks start to appear and seem to float all by themselves. This year's dance was especially cool. The picture above is supposed to be an '09 but a couple of girls were accidentally sitting in front of the 9. I'm amazed they can move around the stage and keep their focus on showing their light sticks and not run into each other or bang heads!
There was a voice that asked, "are you dead yet?" followed by the thump of a heart beat. The girls formed a straight line at this point and as the heart beat, they made gentle waves in the line. Pretty freaky, pretty cool. When they performed this dance for basketball, I heard many parents gasp in the audience at this part of the dance. Several muttered, "that's so cool". Way to wow the crowd girls!
