WWAY’s Hannah Patrick competing in UNCW’s ‘Dancing with the Seahawks’
WILMINGTON, NC (WWAY) — WWAY’S Hannah Patrick will be competing in Dancing with the Seahawks this spring to raise money for the UNCW women’s basketball team.
Dancing with the Seahawks is a new event that will be similar to “Dancing with the Stars”. Hannah will be paired up with a professional dancer from a Fred Astaire Dance Studio in Wilmington along with five other “local stars” to compete in a friendly dance competition at the Warwick Center on April 21.
All proceeds will go towards the UNCW women’s basketball team’s Puerto Rico trip next season.
Hannah did something like this in 2017 to support St. Mary Catholic School in downtown Wilmington. Hannah also played basketball and did ballet growing up. In 4th grade, Hannah actually had to make a tough decision to quit ballet, because ballet was on the same night as basketball practice and she never wanted to miss basketball. She is thrilled that both of her passions are coming full circle. While she’s terrified to put her dance skills front and center, she is thrilled to “shake it off” to raise money for the women’s basketball team.
Save the date. It’s happening April 21 from 5 to 9 p.m.
