The city of Frisco just had a milestone anniversary, as they just celebrated the 25th year of the city's annual Daddy Daughter Dance.
Fathers and daughters gathered for the outdoor event at Toyota Stadium, which had to be pushed back because of the pandemic. Jennifer Russell, the special events supervisor for the city's parks and recreation department, told NBC DFW, "It's normally held in February and that was the last normal event we had before the shutdown, and for this to be the first event back was special."
About 1,000 fathers and daughters showed up for the event.
Rashard Hollis said he was glad he was able to spend the evening with his daughter Parker, who he says is "5 going on 35." He told NBC DFW, "It was amazing! It was so wonderful seeing all the fathers and their daughters smiling and dancing. They had an electric bull ride, cowboy and cowgirls on clown stilts taking pictures, concessions, and a dance floor not far from the field."
Russell was happy the event went off without a hitch, and how everyone enjoyed the maintaining of the dance. She said, "It's one of our biggest traditions in Frisco," Russell said. "It's such a memory-making event. They love it!"
