Hall of Fame
The South Carolina Square & Round Dance “HALL OF FAME” was established in 1981 by the South Carolina Square & Round Dance Federation to recognize and honor dancers, callers and/or cuers, living and/or deceased, who have contributed to the Federation, their clubs, other square dance organizations, and square and round dancing through faithful and dedicated service and outstanding leadership.
A display case which houses the exhibit to honor the award recipients is located in the Hugh Dimmery Memorial Center in Columbia
