Contestant couple Alyson Stone and Dr. Richard Currie sum up their participation in their own
words:
“Why not learn a completely new skill and then perform it publicly for money while challenging
the entire community to judge us?”
While said in jest, this couple is very deeply committed to this cause. Alyson is the support
services coordinator for Shuswap Hospice and her husband Richard is family physician with a
practice at Salmon Arm Medical Clinic and you can also see him in the ER at Shuswap Lake
General.
With their busy young family involved in skiing, soccer and a host of other recreational sports,
Alyson and Richard are looking forward to celebrating their 10-year anniversary with date nights
on the dance floor ?and hopefully avoid a mid-life crisis at the same time.
