Help us make our third annual Lighthouse Dance Off the best ever! You have until December 15th to showcase your dance skills and creativity.
Choose your rhythm from our assortment of songs across various genres like swing, ballet, disco, and more. Each piece is around two minutes long, giving you ample time to shine. To join in the fun, simply film your dance video at or near a lighthouse.

Your video can tell a story, but at least half of it should feature some kind of dancing. The video can feature your friends, family, staff, volunteers, students from a local dance school—or just you! Let those creative juices flow.
We will choose five finalists, and overall creativity and spirit are the most important criteria. The finalists will have their videos featured during a spectacular live virtual USLHS New Year's Eve event where YOU—our audience—get to choose the ultimate winner.
We will donate to the favorite lighthouse or lighthouse-related organization of the finalists as follows: $500 for first place, $250 for second and third place, and $100 for fourth and fifth place. AND - we have added a special bonus cash prize of $500 for the winner! That means that the first place submission will get $500 for the lighthouse organization of your choice, plus another $500 to spend however you want.
Don’t miss out—get your entry in before the deadline. All entries must be received by midnight on December 15, 2025.
Email your finished video to jeremy@uslhs.org. If you need help sending a large file or if you have any other questions, email jeremy@uslhs.org. Good luck!
