Wichita Swing Dance Society

Hello dancers!  Hope you all have a wonderful holiday weekend, and I want to remind you that if you need a dancing fix, we WILL BE OPEN on Sunday!  All the dancing you've come to know and love, plus it's a dance card Sunday!
 
Also you'll note that attached to this email is the Election Ballot for the board this year.  Check out the people who stepped forward to lead your group in the coming year!  Elections are September 12th in the basement of the studio and will be followed by a membership meeting.  You must be a member to vote, and if you are a member we want you to be there at the meeting to discuss a few items.
