Here's Mikayla (14) with the Deer Valley High School "Performance Jazz Ensemble," (directed by David P. Duarté) playing "Riverdance."

The event was a fundraiser to help pay for the band's trip to the Western International Band Clinic in Seattle, Washington. Outback Steakhouse graciously supplied their facility, all the food, waiters/waitresses, bussers, etc. totalling thousands of dollars to help this remarkable jazz band.
