You've heard of the show Dancing With The Stars, but Thursday night Pitt Community College put a local spin on the idea for an annual fundraising event.

WITN's Dave Jordan was one of three judges for the competition. 7 teams in total helped raise money for Pitt Community College student scholarships. Development director Lynne James says the idea for a dance competition is something the college is very proud of.

"This is an event that PCC has been doing for a number of years, but the dance show is an entirely new component," said PCC Foundation's Lynne James.

You can watch the Dancing with the P.C.C. Stars event on WITN 2 Friday March 15th at 7:00 p.m. and Saturday March 16th at 7:30 p.m.
