VIKING VOICES
The Allentown Central Catholic High School Dance Team traveled to New York City in early January for a weekend of Broadway experiences. The team attended the Tony award winning musicals “Aladdin” and “Cats.” The girls also had the opportunity to participate in master classes instructed by professional dancers, as well as a talk back session with the cast of “Cats.” Even a snow spell couldn’t stop the team from having a fantastic time in the city.
The CCHS Dance Team performs for both boys and girls home basketball games and is featured at every pep rally.
