Hi Everyone,

What a great show we had again for series #2 on April 3rd. All the dancers were amazing, and the best news of all... 72 people signed up to be on the Bone Marrow Registry by doing a simple mouth swab. We would like to thank the Katelyn Bedard Bone Marrow Association for coming out to do the swabs. If you didn't get a chance to sign up then you can go to... www.onematch.ca

Unfortunately we have to say good-bye to the following dancers who were eliminated at series # 2...
Kyle Reid & Vanessa McCarthy, Dr. Corina Velehorschi & Frank Pompa, Zareh Nalkranian & Elizabeth Palotas and Matt Ripley & Dayna Fiorito.

Thanks to all of the volunteers, cast and sponsors of Dancing with the Local Stars for promoting the bone marrow registry. Please join us for our the next show - series # 3: Semi-Finals which will be held on Tuesday May 10, 2011.
