Thursday evening, a three-day celebration of country, swing and line dancing kicks-off with the start of the 22nd annual Portland Dance Festival.

Hundreds of enthusiasts from throughout the Pacific Northwest and Canada will converge on the Sheraton Portland Airport Hotel.

I dropped by the home of organizers, Randy and Rhonda Shotts, to find out exactly what will be happening.
