The Spirit of Lindy Hop winner will receive a free pass to next year's Camp Jitterbug along with a cool trophy.
This is an open Jack & Jill which means everyone is invited to compete.

This contest will be a strictly lindy hop contest for couples. Prelims will be danced in heats to multiple songs and tempos. Finals will be a combination of dancing in heats and jam format.
