For international folk dance on Friday nights. . .<br />
<br />
Although we ALWAYS welcome new dancers, we're making a special event in February for first-timers. From 7:00-8:00 p.m. each Friday in February, we'll have a program especially geared toward new dancers, but also interesting for our regulars (lots of easy NEW dances will be taught!). From 8:00 to 10:00 we'll have intermediate/advanced programming, which new dancers are welcome to stay for, knowing that the pace may pick up a bit.<br />
<br />
If you haven't folk danced before, or are just starting out, this is a great opportunity to get started with a little extra support. First time dancers are free ($3 regular price).<br />
<br />
If you're one of our regular dancers, please invite a few new people to join us for this special event.<br />
<br />
As always, no partners needed, no experience needed. Wear comfortable clothes and shoes. Bring water bottle. And we'll see you on the dance floor!Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7442179036577209051.post-55847077306462206992017-12-24T19:33:00.001-08:002017-12-24T19:35:05.474-08:002018 Contra Dance Dates!<div class="MsoNormalCxSpFirst" style="line-height: normal;">

<li>After a brief holiday break, we're back to regular dancing each Friday....now through June. Come join us for a variety of dances from around the world!</li>
<li>New! First Fridays will be "Open Mic" teaching night. Dancers are invited to share a new or old favorite with the group. We've got a great line up of three teachers for February, but slots are open starting for March.</li>
<li>Rummage Sale Reserves: This spring (time/place TBA) we'll be holding a fund-raising rummage sale to cover the costs for a much needed new computer to organize and store our dance music. We'd appreciate any donations of household goods, clothing, etc., for the sale. So as you're spring cleaning, please keep us in mind for donations and save your stuff. (We can arrange to collect your donated items if you don't want to hold them until the spring.)</li>

<br />
Friday, October 30<br />Our regular folk dance evening will take a special twist with a 1950s theme. Dress up for the occasion (sock hop...rock-a-billy...car-hop...?) and be prepared to dance to some rockin' 50's tunes as well as some of our favorite international folk.<br />
Friends and family welcome. You're invited to bring snacks or fingerfoods to share.<br />
At our regular time/place, 7:00 p.m. at the RAP dance studio on Market in Redding <br />
<br />
Saturday, October 31<br />
Contra dance (at the IOOF/Rebekah Hall in Palo Cedro) <br />
Our monthly contra dance will be spiced up with a bit of Halloween spirit. Come as you are or wear a costume (be sure to pick something comfortable for dancing!). We'll have a table of "treats" (contributions of snacks or sweets are welcome). Hope to see you there!<br />
