clermont-dd-lip-sync-battle-2016Ohio Valley Goodwill was thrilled to be a major sponsor and supporter of the first-ever Clermont DD Lip Sync Battle which took place on Saturday, October 1st at Jungle Jim’s Paradise Pavilion in Eastgate. Team Goodwill was enthusiastic in its support of all of the brave contestants who displayed their talents in performing all of the latest greatest hits. Presented by the Clermont DD Empowers Me Board to raise money for equipment that is used for their Respite Program, the Lip Sync Battle included a raffle, along with the best (and funniest) entertainment Clermont County has to offer.

This year’s acts included: Hip Hop Cupcakes, Got That Rite, World Class Ping Pong Player Extraordinaire, Awkward Ottkes and It Takes A Village. Audience members had the chance to purchase votes for their favorite act, but only one act was chosen as the winner. Despite brilliant performances from all of this year’s exceptional artists, the Awkward Ottkes, featuring Dan and Liz Ottke, were the Grand Prize winners of this year’s Lip Sync Battle.
