The event raised funds for the Shorewood Jazz band students so that they can attend the Fullerton California Jazz festival and Disneyland in March, as well as other regional jazz festivals this year.

    Suzanne takes terrific photos, but reports that these photos were actually taken by Dance-It! staff.
