Hello dancers!
We have lots of opportunities for you to start the holiday season.
First, join us Sunday for lunch in Old Town before we dance at the Festival of Trees. We will meet at 11:00 AM for lunch, and then head over to Century II. Please contact Megan for more information and your RSVP at vicepresident@wichitaswingdance.com.
Second, come dance Sunday at the Festival of Trees at Century II from 1-2 PM. Admission is free for dancers and a guest. Additional guests cost $5. Enter at the northeast side of the building; it has a Festival of Trees banner. Inform those taking tickets you are a performer with the Wichita Swing Dance Society. Please arrive at least 15 minutes early to check-in upstairs in the balcony.
