2023 Junior SOS
The Junior Shag Association is actively planning for this year’s Junior SOS. We are excited to celebrate the 32st anniversary of the largest junior dance event in the world! The 2023 dates for Junior SOS are July 11-16th. In order to honor the history and traditions of our past, we must thoughtfully prepare for the future. To set up all generations for success, The Board will finalize this year’s Junior SOS plans under the guidance of the most up-to-date healthcare standards. The format (in person or virtual) will be announced in April. If we are able to have an in-person event, the OD Beach and Golf resort will be our host for this week-long event.
