Toronto's Annual Frankie Manning Tribute Weekend with Chazz Young and Music by Gordon Webster. All proceeds from the weekend are going to the "Frankie Manning Foundation". Toronto had close ties and a lot of love for Frankie Manning. We had the pleasure of hosting Frankie for 4 workshops, and we've been holding an annual fundraiser since he passed away. We feel that it's not only important to raise money for the Frankie Manning Foundation but also to keep Frankie's memory and spirit alive and fresh. Many new dancers won't have had a chance to meet Frankie in person, so it's the responsibility of everyone who knew him to share the joy that he brought to us. Toronto has run a single night version of this event the past 3 years. This year will be our 4th version of the fundraiser, now expanded to an entire weekend of festivities. Our one night event in 2012 raised over $5000, and 2011 raised over $3500- in total Toronto has raised over $15,000 for the Frankie Manning Foundation. Amazing! So please join us in Toronto for a fun weekend of dancing, workshops and celebrating Frankie Manning.
