Hello dancers! 

 

Thank you for another great night of dancing Sunday. If you were born in February we would like to celebrate you with a Birthday dance. 

 

Bring some extra cash for the delicious treats at the Bake Sale.  The proceeds go towards Sunflower Swing.

 

Just around the corner there is April dancing fool's day workshop from 1-4 PM at Morning Star Community Church.  Jamin Jackson will teach a series of workshop focusing on improving your solo dancing and incorporating it into your partner dancing.  Contact Evan Borst or Chelsea Rothschild for more information.
