Dancing With the Statesboro Stars benefiting Safe Haven, revealed the teams for their upcoming 2025 signature event Wednesday evening June 25, 2025. This marks the 15th year of this signature event, and D&R Car Care is honored to be this year’s presenting sponsor.

At the DWTSS Dancer Appreciation Kick Off Event, each Star was introduced along with their professional dance pro, who will join them to make the ultimate dream team. The kickoff dinner was held at the Statesboro Homebuilders Association.

Dinner was provided by Al Chapman and Blue Mile Catering decorations by Kerri Knight, owner of Party Impressions and Shakevia Brown, owner of Balloon Bella. Guests were treated to inspiring talks and learned more about Safe Haven and the essential services they provide to our community, along with a glimpse into the DWTSS journey to the mirror ball.

The 2025 DWTSS Committee includes Kim Billings, Chair, Tami Kicklighter, Alana Avret, Diana Ray, Amanda Dyches, Corbett Deloach and Russ Lanier.

This year’s Dancing With the Statesboro Stars promises mesmerizing performances that will enchant the audience on November 20 at 6:30 PM, with an encore show on November 23, 2025, at 3 PM at Connection Church.

Each star will be paired with a professional dancer to help choreograph their performance for the event. These twelve teams will showcase their dancing skills for a charitable cause and raise funds for our Safe Haven. Each one of these individuals will be donating their time to this amazing nonprofit and making memories that will last a lifetime.

The community is invited to join in on the fun and cheer on their favorite stars as they dance the night away for a worthy cause. All proceeds from the event will directly support Safe Haven, providing vital resources and support for those affected by domestic violence.
