Wichita Swing Dance Society

Hello dancers!  We have some serious fun on the horizon so read closely....  First off I want to remind you we are electing new board members on September 12th.  We need some new people to step up and lead this group for the next year.  Attached is a packet with information, please look it over.  Also that night we'll  have a membership meeting.  So all you members, the fun starts at 6:30 PM in the basement.  Come pick your leadership and hear about how we've been doing!
 
THIS WEEK
Sunday night our favorite DJ Ronnie Choy is back!  He's excited to play for you, and you should be excited to dance for him.  If not, you clearly don't know what you're missing.  Don't be late, it's going to be a very fun evening.
