Maier, who just finished her first year of schooling at UBCO, has been accepted to the 2018 Fusion Fighters Dance Fest in Limerick, Ireland, and as one of the first 10 official cast members, has a chance to win a scholarship to help with the heavy costs associated with the trip through an online video competition.
