The Mesquite-Toes make several appearances in Mesquite throughout the years. They perform an annual Christmas Benefit and support many local charitable and civic functions by either performing and/or volunteering. They culminate their dance season every April with a multi-performance dance spectacular where all of the teams get to show how spectacular they are! The team has performed throughout Nevada, Utah, and California and also in venues much further from home - New York City, Branson, MO, and even during Mardi Gras in New Orleans. They have presented shows for Holland America Cruise Lines on several occasions and always to standing room only crowds.
