She competed for the title of America's Outstanding Teen in Orlando, Florida in August 2005! In addition to all that Kacie does within the dance community, she is also very active in civic and social activities in the South County area. Kacie spent time in Camden, New York where she assisted in building homes for those less fortunate with Cluster Thirteen Ministries. She was a member of the National Honor Society for three years, and served as the Coordinator for Inductees.
