Help! The Yakima area desperately needs one or more ballroom dance instructors. We have no dance studio in town, and no professional instructors within 75 miles. The population is approx 70,000, with several times that number in the surrounding area, so the number of potential dancers is great. And we do have a USABDA chapter, with a good-sized group interested in lessons, but now no one to teach.

Yakima is located in sunny eastern Washington, just over 2 hours from Seattle. The town's life is mostly centered on family activities and church. The nearby 'lower valley' is known for its vineyards and wineries. The scenic Cascade Mountains and nearby rivers offer a variety of outdoor recreational activities. And we have 300 days of sunshine a year!

Anyone interested in relocating to Yakima?
