Several of us Childgrove dancers have found pleasure zoom dancing with a group at http://symmetryecd.com. Join us on Sundays at 1:00pm CST.
It's a zoom dance, so you'll need a zoom app on your device (or program on a computer).
CONSIDER DONATING
If you would like to help us meet our ongoing rent expense or (even better) help our callers and band musicians who count on this income to stay afloat, please consider donating! Some of us are sending in the amount we would normally use to pay to go dancing as the basis for our donations. (It's a thought...)
If you would care to make a donation to Childgrove (in any amount) here's the place:
