Top of the List proudly joined several sponsors to help the Sleigh Belles raise enough money to march in the parade. The 16-member dance troupe comprised of women aged 18 to 50-plus was founded in 2007 and performs a kickline, jazz, and funk routine at holiday events throughout the Twin Cities. Top of the List\u2019s own Audrey Flack joined the Sleigh Belle Dancers this year and quickly learned that precision dancing\u2014especially in high-heeled boots\u2014is no easy task.  \u201cWe\u2019ve been working since late August to perfect our kickline and formations,\u201d Flack said. But being able to perform for audiences at venues ranging from senior centers to shopping malls is worth it.\u201d  Audrey, Sleigh Belle DancerAlthough Holidazzle performances were a highlight of the Sleigh Belles\u2019 season last year, new fundraising requirements threatened to put a damper on the troupe\u2019s hopes of performing in the 2008 parade. With the help of Top of the List and other sponsors, the dancers were able to reach their fundraising goals and spread holiday cheer to hundreds of parade-goers.  For Top of the List owner Beverly Mapes, sponsoring the dancers was a win-win situation. \u201cThe Holidazzle may be unique to Minnesota, but it is featured on local news programs across the country,\u201d Mapes said. \u201cOur sponsorship not only increased Top of the List\u2019s national visibility, it also helped a group of talented dancers achieve their goals.\u201d","dateModified":"2008-12-28","datePublished":"2008-12-28","publisher":{"@type":"Organization","image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https:\/\/topofthelist.net\/wp-content\/themes\/totl\/graphics\/totl-logo.png","license":"https:\/\/topofthelist.net\/wp-content\/themes\/totl\/graphics\/totl-logo.png#WebPage","name":"Top Of The List transparent logo","height":"108","width":"225","creator":{"@id":"https:\/\/topofthelist.net\/about-us\/"},"copyrightNotice":"Copyright 2015 Top Of The List","acquireLicensePage":"https:\/\/topofthelist.net\/contact-us\/","creditText":"Logo graphic created by Top Of The List","@id":"https:\/\/topofthelist.net\/wp-content\/themes\/totl\/graphics\/totl-logo.png"},"logo":{"@id":"https:\/\/topofthelist.net\/wp-content\/themes\/totl\/graphics\/totl-logo.png"},"address":{"@type":"PostalAddress","name":"TOTL Address","addressCountry":"US","addressLocality":"Grand Rapids","addressRegion":"Michigan","postalCode":"49506","streetAddress":"2513 Lake Dr SE","@id":"https:\/\/topofthelist.net\/#PostalAddress"},"url":"https:\/\/topofthelist.net\/","alternateName":"TOTL","name":"Top Of The List","description":"We are a full service digital marketing agency based in Grand Rapids, MI.
