Local celebrities are teaming up once again with professional dance instructors to bring back Swinging with the Stars. The Central Okanagan Hospice Association’s fundraiser is fashioned after the popular TV show, “Dancing with the Stars” and is slated for Feb. 25, 2023 at the Delta Grand Hotel.

These seven groups of dancers will be perfecting their routines, in a variety of dance styles, over the next several months in order to raise money for the COHA. They’ll also be fundraising in their communities in order to meet their financial goals..
