Country Pride Dance Club
Country Pride Dance Club(CPDC) was established in Red Deer, Alberta in 1991 for all of the Central Alberta community to learn and promote country dance. In that time period the club has done some amazing things, and taken its members on a wonderful journey. From teaching students how to two-step, to taking our dance team to compete at a World Championship. Country Pride Dance Club is probably the longest running Dance Club in Canada. They had their 25th Anniversary in 2016 and have a video documentary about the club that is 1hr 20mins longs. See it here:
