UPCOMING ANNOUNCEMENTS:

***** Update 11-29-2024 *****

Click on the Pass The Sea Fly-In link at the left to get to the form which may be printed and used to mail in registrations, bring it to the club if you're local, or you may use the PayPal link shown on the form if you use that service. Don't forget to include all your information in the PayPal registration that is requested on the form. A menu for the meals and a schedule will be provided as we get closer to the event.

PLUS CLASS STARTED WEDNESDAY SEPTEMBER 4, 2024 - The class is for everyone who is already proficient at dancing SSD and has had some experience dancing Plus. If you previously took a Plus class, but never completed the class, or if you already know Plus and would like to brush up on your Plus dancing skills, this class is for you. This class would also be great for those who would like to learn to dance the "other side" (if you usually dance the boy's part, you can learn the girl's part; if you usually dance the girls part, you can learn the boy's part). This may be of interest to some plus dancers from other local clubs. If you can dance both parts, you can fill in as needed in any square, which means you can probably dance most tips.

We have made changes to our dancing schedules effective Wednesday, September 25, 2024. SSD - Social Square Dancing is 6:30 to 7:30 pm and Plus Class, (which picked up where SSD class ended) is 7:30 to 8:45 pm. Full-level Plus Dancing is 8:45 to 9:30 pm. Having already learned all of the SSD calls is a prerequisite for dancing SSD and having learned all of the Plus calls is a prerequisite for dancing full-level Plus. This schedule is subject to being adjusted according to club needs. See the subscriber email or contact us for other details.
