Hello dancers! Thanks to everyone who braved the weather last week and came out to dance. If you aren't certain if we're having a swingin' sunday or not, go to the blog on our website here: http://www.wichitaswingdance.com/weekly.html
We'll be sure to put up a cancellation notice there if it should happen. I must warn you though, we have a rivalry with the postal service over who takes more days off, and it's neck and neck.....
I'll take a quick second to point out to you that the Lindy Bomber's dance team is holding open tryouts on March 7th. We perform, teach, and compete, and we're looking for you! Tryouts will be held after the weekly Lindy Bomber's classes at 8:30, check out www.lindybombers.com for details.
THIS WEEK
Swingin' Sunday will feature another great night of Partner Charleston and East Coast Swing lessons, so show up early and add a little bit to your dancing. I promise something new and exciting for the advanced east coast class....
