7/11/2007 - BEMUS POINT — Though they started out in daylight, participants in the first round of Dancing Under the Stars ended up doing just that last week.
A new event being held weekly as part of the Bemus Bay Pops summer series, Dancing Under the Stars features instruction from the DeMarco Sisters School of Dance and is presented by WJTN and WKSN — both Media One Group radio stations.
Held on The Floating Stage in Bemus Point each Thursday night, the event is free and open to the public. In addition to being open to all skill levels, Dancing Under the Stars is an all-ages event and last week had participants ranging from 18 years old to 70.
According to Josette Cromey, a WJTN representative, Dancing Under the Stars is a local take on the television show ''Dancing With the Stars,'' much like Chautauqua Lake Idol is a take on ''American Idol.''
''Last week was very good,'' Cromey said of the event's inaugural night. ''The sisters brought some of their dancers on and they did a routine to warm everybody up. There's going to be a different dance taught each week and then on the final night, somebody will win a trophy and prizes.''
Continuing tonight, Dancing Under the Stars begins at 7 p.m. with an hour of instruction from the DeMarco sisters. Open dancing will continue from 8 p.m. to 10 p.m. on The Floating Stage. In addition to tonight, Dancing Under the Stars will continue on July 26 as well as Aug. 2, 9, 16 and 13.
Tonight's theme will be country dancing. Future lessons will include latin and ballroom dancing. Sound for the event is provided by Muzz Mobile Sound.
''Everyone should come out and enjoy the fun,'' Cromey said. ''Come on stage and learn to dance or, if you already know how to dance, it's good for tuning up.''
