This video includes the dance performed by Leslie Melton Jennings as she received the "Keepers of the Dance" award at the Beach Shagger's Hall of Fame during the induction ceremony. The event was held at The Ocean Drive Beach and Golf Resort in Ocean Drive, South Carolina.
The Keepers Of The Dance was started in 1998 by the Beach Shaggers National Hall Of Fame to honor former junior shaggers who have continued to participate in our dance, music, and lifestyle after their junior years and have been instrumental in "keeping" the dance and music alive. The brain child of Harry Driver and Chick Hedrick, fostered by Vickie Carter and a host of other Hall of Famers, this organization has grown and flourished over the years.
