In January the County closed the Vet's hall due to seismic safety concerns. We don't know when or if it will reopen. We need a dance hall for Friday, March 5 from 7:00-11:30 PM, Sunday March 21 from 6:00-10:30 PM and third-Sundays for the remainder of 2010, except for July when we're scheduling special talent July 11.

Although many volunteers devoted lots of time and effort, we were unable to find
a suitable and affordable venue to replace the Vet's hall for the February 14
contra dance. It is with regret, therefore, that the dance has been canceled.

We hope to schedule a special meeting this month of the TDSC governing board
to address this issue in the longer term. We welcome your ideas, suggestions
and assistance in identifying appropriate dance halls in the area. Please
contact me with ideas and offers to help solve this problem.

Everyone is welcome! Partners and dancing experience are not necessary.

There is an optional Beginner's Workshop offered 20 minutes before each dance.

Wear comfortable, non-marking shoes to protect your feet and our floors - a seperate pair of dance shoes works best.
You'll be more comfortable in loose-fitting light-weight clothing.

Each of the dozen or so dance forms during the evening are taught and prompted, except for the waltz and hambo.
