Ben and Cristy have been married for four years and love finding ways to have fun together and try new things. While they have no formal dance training as a couple, they definitely aren’t strangers to the dance floor — their wedding reception is still talked about for just how much dancing and fun there was!
Ben was especially excited when the opportunity to participate in Dancing With the Coastal Stars came up. He loved the idea of taking on something completely new and challenging together, and they’re both excited to see if their love of dancing can translate into learning a little actual technique.
By day, Ben is a plumbing apprentice, and Cristy works with children, youth, and families experiencing homelessness through the Lincoln County School District HELP Program. Because of Cristy’s work alongside families navigating housing instability, the mission of Samaritan House is especially meaningful to them and makes being part of this event that much more special.
Outside of work, Ben and Cristy love spending time with their family, cooking together, and getting outdoors — regardless of what the Oregon Coast weather decides to do.
For them, Dancing With the Coastal Stars is an opportunity to challenge themselves, do something memorable together, have a lot of fun along the way, and support an organization doing important work for families in their community.
