America's Clogging Hall of Fame

America's Clogging Hall of Fame America’s Clogging Hall of Fame (ACHF) is an organization dedicated to the preservation of the old time square dance and clogging.

ACHF was founded in 1981 by Dan and Sandy Angel for the purpose of honoring our past leaders and providing a place for dancers from all walks of life to come together and dance. ACHF is a family-oriented organization that promotes clean, family-friendly events that are designed to preserve our traditional artform while welcoming the growth of the modern form of the dance. ACHF sanctions many compe

titions throughout the year where teams and dancers can qualify to compete in the ACHF World Championships dance-off the last full weekend in October. Unless Halloween falls on that date, then it is held the weekend before. Any team finishing 1st or 2nd in TWO sanctioned competitions qualifies to compete at the dance-off.
