Brittany Schmucker and Adam Munday teamed up at the beginning of August 2010 and placed 6th at the 2011 U.S. National Figure Skating Championships. They have quickly gone from Novice level to Senior, which is the highest level in figure skating.

Brittany is 18 years old and attends American University in Washington, D.C. She has been skating for 10 years and is a member of the Tulsa Figure Skating Club. She has qualified and competed in multiple Jr. National and National events. Along with her passion for ice dancing, she enjoys ballet and musical theatre.

Adam is 24 years old and has been skating for over 17 years. He is a member of the Highland Skating Club in Seattle, Washington. He started skating with the intention of playing hockey but quickly transitioned to figure skating due to his fascination with the harness. This is his fifth ice dancing season and is a three-time National competitor for the discipline. When he is not skating, he is working, reading, or playing video games.

They are coached by Alexi Kiliakov, Elena Novak and Dmytri Ilin in Washington, D.C. They will be skating their short dance which for the 2012 season is Latin rhythms with the Rhumba.

In keeping with the Race theme of Hope Runs on Heroes and in observance of the 10th anniversary of 9/11, we will have a patriotic show with lots of red, white and blue. Come enjoy a fun afternoon in a nice, cool location.

Hope to see you there,
Jill
