Dancing With The Stars is evading Charleston. Of course it's the local version, and one of our very own will be dancing her way across the floor again!
Eyewitness News Anchor Deborah Linz will be performing an exhibition. She was a star the first year the event started.
Sunday, the stars and their professional dance partners got the chance to hit the competition dance floor for a little practice time before the big dance off Friday.
There are ten couples, with stars ranging from business owners to politicians.
The event, which is hosted by the West Virginia Symphony League, has become so popular they've had to move to the Charleston Civic Center to accommodate all of the fans.
The dancers hit the floor this Friday night, and new this year, you can vote for your favorite. Just go to www.wvsymphony.org/support-wvso/specialevents/82-dancing-with-the-stars.html. Each vote is $5.
