In just 8 years a local dance company has become the largest in rural southeastern Manitoba.
Stoney Brook Dance Company has gone from about 100 registrations to over 680.  Spokesperson Karla Coldwell says they were running out of space at the Steinbach Cultural Arts Centre so over the summer they moved to Clearspring Centre.  Grand opening celebrations were Monday afternoon.  Now that they are in Clearspring Centre, Coldwell says they'll be able to offer more classes to more students.  She adds when they started up 8 years ago she thought there was potential for the dance community in the southeast to grow but never expected this much interest.
