Our Story
The Rawcette Dancers of Grimsby are legends of the parade, being the first and longest-running dance studio in the area. For over 40 years, we have proudly marched and danced in the Santa Claus Parade, often requested to lead the Burlington Teen Tour Band. Join us in celebrating our history, as our studio has been a part of this tradition since the 1960s! #santaclausade #grimsbyontario @town.of.grimsby #oldestdancestudio #originaldancestudio #dancestudio #dance That's me at 7 or 8 years old Pamela DeJager, participating in the Grimsby Santa Claus Parade in the late '70s and '90s.​
