The Elegance, The Enjoyment…The Emerald Ball!
Emerald Ball is a must see event! If you’ve never been, you must experience it at least once.
To me this competition embodies what a major competition is all about. This will be my 29th Emerald Ball and it’s the only competition I’ve gone to every year I’ve been in America . For me, it’s run impeccably and no one sees all the craziness going on behind the scenes. Wayne and Donna are so unbelievably professional in all they do and are the reason this competition is so successful. As a competitor, you want lots of people to compete against so that winning really means something. At the Emerald, most if not all, the comps start as a first round. The Ballroom always looks fabulous and creates the atmosphere competitors like yet always in a familiar way so you know where you are . I really feel fortunate to have been able to have been both a Professional and Pro/Am competitor at this comp and now a judge . Thank you Wayne and Donna for continuing to providing this fabulous event for everyone to enjoy. I’m hoping to be able to attend for at least another 29 years.
