Hello dancers! It's the final day of March and we're going to send the month off with style. That's right, tonight is the Dollar Dance!! Dancing to DJ'd music in the studio basement from 7-9 PM. All it costs you is a buck for a great night of dancing in the middle of the week. Be aware you may have to come in the door on the west side of the studio that enters directly to the stairwell. Please support this venture, as the frequency it happens is entirely dependant on you the dancers showing your support.
Also, tonight is your last chance to register for Sunflower Swing at the discount price! If you wait until tomorrow you'll only pay more. Check out www.sunflowerswing.com for event details.
Also, a quick preview of April for you, as we have a lot of important things on the schedule already.
April 3 - Dance Card Sunday!
April 10 - SOUL NIGHT!
April 17 - Membership meeting in the studio basement at 7, plus a free dance contest!
