The Villa Park Parks and Recreation Department’s Discover Dance program held its annual recital in Willowbrook High School’s auditorium on Feb. 22. “You Can’t Stop the Beat!” was the title of this year’s recital, which featured dancers between the ages of 3 and 16. There are nearly 90 dancers in the Discover Dance program. Since September, each class met weekly. The program’s 19-week session ended with Saturday’s recital, which included 23 performances. The dancers in the recital included (top row, left to right) Jordyn Bradley, Melanie Marinier and Annabelle Deany.
