Dancing With the Kettering Stars features local celebrities

KETTERING, Ohio (WDTN) – Storm Team 2 Morning Meteorologist Jamie Jarosik will host the Kettering Police Foundation’s fifth annual Dancing With the Kettering Stars event this weekend.

The event featured local celebrities dancing with their professional partners from Arthur Murray Dance Center of Dayton. The goal: to win the coveted mirror ball trophy. A trophy is awarded to the dancers with the best technical dance skills, selected by a jury. Another trophy is won by the participants who receive audience approval. This couple is also the winner of the fundraising portion of the event, as each “vote” is a donation of five dollars.

Celebrity dancers included Kettering Schools Superintendent Mindy McCarty-Stewart, Kettering City Manager Matt Greeson, KPD Crime Analyst Meghan Yost, Dor-Wood Optimist President Mike Zywien, Modern College of Design President and Owner , Jessica Barry, and Director of Cardiology and Respiratory Services for Miami Valley Hospital Mike McKewen.

All funds raised will benefit the Kettering Police Foundation, whose sole purpose is to recognize and assist those in need. The foundation promotes the training of area officers, assists citizens in extraordinary situations, provides college scholarships to students studying law enforcement, and provides funding for many local programs and projects.
