Okay... I've hosted these kinda comps before.

The competition should be judged, with a degree of points added for crowd reaction.

A three judge panel should suffice, with people who know dancing well,
but don't have any ties to the dancers themselves.

Anyone can enter in, its just by coming up and showing they want to when the circle is formed. Each dancer gets to dance at least once, keeping it as short as possible, with exceptions for those who feel they can give it one more go if they aren't happy with their first attempt.

Realizing that there are different forms of glowsticking...
after the first round, depending on the turnout, the next round could be split into two catagories... possibly one dominant style, and one for the other styles... it can be figured out at the moment. (One catagory : One winner... Two Catagories : Two winners, with a dance off at the end between the two)
Second round should have 4-6 dancers
Third round should have 2 dancers.
The big part would be the first round...
after that its easy.

I don't know about anyone else,
but it can be hectic to get everything organized right.
I volunteer to Ref or to judge or both.

I think this is a great idea.
All in fun, and certainly memorable.
