Hello dancers! We're putting out a call to arms this week. We have an excellent opportunity to promote our club and let all of you have an awesome time. Riverfest is drawing near, and we're continuing our tradition of participating in the Riverfest Parade! But to do this, we need you! If you're creative, we need help designing the float. If you're handy, we need help building the float. If you love to dance, we need people to dance in the parade. If you're interested, WE WANT YOU. Please respond to this email or contact Evan if you're interested in helping out in any way. You don't have to give us a big chunk of your time to make a big difference.

We have some big things coming up, so read the email carefully.....
