Thanks to everybody who came out last week to the Christmas Party, it was a great night!  But don't despair if you missed it, we have another big event coming up shortly!  More on that and other important dance news below....

Swingin' Sundays will feature a special performance by the Lindy Bombers Dance Team!  Don't miss out on a chance to dance and be entertained.  Also don't miss your chance to buy a ticket to our New Year's Eve party!
 
BIG EVENTS
It doesn't get much more special than New Year's Eve, and if you're looking for a cheap night of swinging fun we can oblige.  We'll be at Harry's from 9 PM to 1 AM swingin' in the new year, and we want you to join us!  Just $10 gets you in if you pay in advance, $15 at the door.  We'll have a delightful breakfast to kick off 2011 and dance away 2010 in style.  We're also looking for a few volunteers to help out, respond to this email if you're interested.
 
January 30th is the return of SOUL NIGHT!!!!  Get your boogie shoes ready, it's going to be great!
 
July 15-17, 2011 - It's the return of Sunflower Swing!  We have venues and instructors lined up, it's going to be a great, great time.  Two days of classes with some of the best the midwest has to offer and three great nights of dancing!  Mark your calendars now, it's going to be a party of epic proportions.
