Get ready to sparkle and shine — because United Way of the Greater Dayton Area’s Dancing with the Stars will hit the stage on Saturday, February 21, 2026, at the Henny Penny Owners Hall (1219 US 35, Eaton, OH 45320)!This unforgettable evening will feature six of Preble County’s very own stars stepping out of their comfort zones and onto the dance floor — all for a great cause. Each contestant has teamed up with a personal choreographer to create a one-of-a-kind ballroom routine that they’ll unveil for the first time that night. Expect glitz, glamour, and a whole lot of fun as our local “stars” compete for your votes and the coveted Judge’s Choice and People’s Choice awards!
HOW TO VOTE:
Every dollar makes a difference — every $1 donation = 1 vote for your favorite dancer! There’s no limit, so vote early and often to help your favorite team take home the People’s Choice Award. Voting closes at 8:00 PM on the night of the event.
AWARDS:
Judge’s Choice Award: Determined by our panel of judges based on technical skill, choreography, and overall performance.
People’s Choice Award: Determined by you! The audience and online supporters will decide who wins based on total votes raised.
Each dancer isn’t just competing, they’re raising vital funds to support United Way of the Greater Dayton Area's mission of Leading a United Community to Uplift our Neighbors right here in the Miami Valley. Over the next few months, our stars will be fundraising, practicing, and perfecting their routines all to make a difference that lasts long after the spotlight fades.
Join us for an evening of rhythm, rivalry, and real community impact!
Come cheer on your favorite local stars, cast your votes, and be part of an inspiring night that brings together fun, philanthropy, and a whole lot of flair!
Attire: Dress to impress... or just dress to have fun. We encourage you to glam it up a bit - but if "come as you are" is more your style we love that too. The only real dress code? Be comfortable, be confident, and be ready to have a great time!
