Choreographer notes:
This dance is choreographed and dedicated to my much-loved grandparents, who raised me. My GaGa who taught me to love Dogwood Trees from a very young age and my late PaPa who was a part-time Honey Beekeeper late in his retirement- when he wasn’t fishing. It was also danced live for the artist, Craig Campbell, who gave his touching approval of the step sheet.
