-De’Onna Young-Stephens

Of course I look forward to being in the Macy's Parade! Dancing in front of millions is the No. 1 thing I’m looking forward to, but as a current dancer for the band, I’m also looking forward to seeing The Rockettes. The Rockettes are internationally known dancers. With dance being something I truly love, I look forward to seeing them. I also look forward to venturing out in New York, because being from Walkertown, N.C. I don't really know much about fast paced city life so I'm a bit excited. All of this is surreal to me.
