"As we waited in line for our group to perform in the Cherry Blossom Parade in DC, we shared so much laughter and storytelling with each other it was so exciting and special to bond with friends from all over the Southeast!  The excitement building up to performing is always a fun time and it gets even better one we've performed!"

"The whole thing feels like one big family. You get to know all of these people who do the same thing as you and are standing next to you working just as hard fo.  a common goal. It's really amazing and that feeling of getting out there and performing for people who otherwise didn't know your sport existed is unbeatable."

"I love how when we come together we feel like one big team ready to show the world why we do what we do.  The Rickard's have given so many of us some great opportunities to explore different parts of the world all while doing something we love so much.  I'm honored to be a part of Americas Clogging All Stars and am thankful for the many new friends I've made along the way. ACA is the best!"

"Family. Family is something I take seriously, and ACA is like FAMILY. So much so that the people we've met through ACA has allowed my son to continue clogging even after he moved NC and can no longer clog with PowerTaps."
