"Ohio Valley Goodwill Sponsor for Dancing with the Stars Gala!"

Though late Fall seems  to be in the distant future, Ohio Valley Goodwill has been busily working with the Friends of Citizens with Disabilities in planning a gala  event in support of the Butler County Board of Developmental Disabilities and the individuals they  serve. The first-ever Dancing with the Stars event is scheduled for Saturday, November 12th, 2011 and features a host of local celebrity dancers including State Senator Bill  Coley and wife Carolyn, Butler County Commissioner Cindy Carpenter and Friends President Andy Germann, Butler County Recorder Danny Crank and wife Margie, Channel 9 reporters Deb Silverman and Valerie Miller and  six other enthusiastic couples.  The exciting evening of entertainment will feature wonderful performances from  the stars as well as Local 12 personality, Bob Herzog as emcee.  The winning couple will be determined by votes from the audience and from on-line fund-raising efforts. To find out more about the contestants and/or to vote for your favorite couple, please visit www.citizenswithdisabilities.com Ohio Valley Goodwill works in partnership with the Butler County Board of Developmental Disabilities (BCBDD) in  providing more than 200 individuals with work training and employment services as well as recreational support options.
