The Canadian National Dance Team includes four Surrey hip-hop dancers. The team is raising money for its trip to the worlds in Italy this October.

SURREY — Four Surrey hip-hop dancers have been chosen by the Canadian National Dance Team to represent Canada at the World Hip-Hop Championships in Italy.

Evan O’Dwyer, Siarra Robles, Danielle Coronado and Serena Manhao earned a spot on the team and will compete at the worlds in Rimini, Italy from Oct. 20 to 25.

But they need your help. Each dancer is required to raise $3,600 to cover costs of the trip. Chances are you will likely see these talented young dancers around town fundraising and looking for sponsorships and donations.
