Dancer Captains

The Dancer Captain (DC) is the most influential person in shaping the Dancer Experience. A pair of two dancer captains (or DC's) lead a team of 15-25 dancers throughout the year leading up to the Marathon. Captains are responsible for communicating with your DMUM family, organizing team meetings and fundraisers, educating their team on DM families and programs, as well as work with other DM leadership to prepare your team for the marathon.
