Dancing with the W2 Stars Update

The journey to the coveted mirror ball trophy has officially begun!

Our 2026 dancers have been announced, and they are already hard at work raising funds and preparing for their big moment on stage. Please join us in welcoming this incredible group to the W2 Stars team:

Rob Jackson, Kim Scrima, Josh Reyes, Gina Hartzheim, Chris Price, Melissa Stroe, Ryan Konen, and Tristyne Brindle.

This year’s event will take place on October 10th at Cordiner Hall on the Whitman College campus, and if last year was any indication—we are in for another unforgettable night.

After moving to this larger venue in 2025, the event saw incredible growth. The energy in the room was electric, and you would be hard-pressed to find anyone who didn’t leave with a smile. This year, we’re planning to make it even bigger and better.

And don’t forget….the competition is fierce! Each dancer’s chance to win is determined by 50% fundraising and 50% audience votes the night of the event, so your support truly makes a difference.

Tickets will go on sale in June.

In the meantime, you can get to know our dancers and follow their journeys:
