What?
This will be the fourth year for Capital Swing under the McHenry’s direction, and we look forward to building on a wonderful 2025 experience. There will be tons of amazing learning opportunities with some of the best WCS instructors in the world. We will be offering competitions including Jack & Jills, NEW Cross Level Strictly Swings, Pro/Am & Rising Star Routines, as well as Classic and Showcase routine divisions. For reference, Capital 2025 competitions are affiliated with WSDC, The Rising Star Tour, and NASDE associations respectively for the relevant competitions.
Most importantly, we will be facilitating a tremendous weekend-long experience, centered around gathering together, and celebrating our amazing art-form and our incredible community. Capital has been doing an exceptional job of that for 31 conventions, and we are optimistic year 32 will be the best one yet.
Why?
Because it will be awesome :-)
We hope you will join us!!!
