When Traveling Dancers are unable to find a suitable home they must resort to less ideal options, like hotels, park benches, and cars.  These options are universally bad for all varieties of the Traveling Dancer.   We are expecting an influx of Traveling Dancers to our town the weekend of April 25-27, 2014.  This is anticipated to correlate with the dance event "Sunflower Swing".  WE NEED YOUR HELP TO ENSURE SUFFICIENT HABITAT FOR THIS POPULATION. If you're interested in volunteering your residence for habitat, here is what MUST be available: *A place to sleep (floor, couch, futon, bed, ANYTHING) *A place to bathe (Traveling Dancers by virtue of their behavior can be quite smelly if not granted access to a shower) That's it!  If you can provide habitat for groups, or transportation, or anything else, it's a welcome bonus.  Traveling Dancers are all housebroken, and known for displays of gratitude and affection to hosts.  If you're interested in joining the fight to maintain the habitat for Traveling Dancers in our town, please speak with Ava Johnston, or send an email describing the capabilities of your habitat to sunflowerswing@gmail.com Thank You!
