Hello dancers, thanks to everyone who came to preemptively dance off some turkey last Sunday! If you missed that chance, you have a reprieve tonight, because.....
It's Swing Night at the Shadow TONIGHT!!!!!
That's right, from 6-9 PM there will be FREE DJ'd Swing music for your dancing enjoyment, and all ages are welcome. Did I mention the full service bar and full food menu? So come on out, dance off a few calories, have a meal, see some friends, and enjoy some pre-holiday fun!
