Sunday Dances
1st, 2nd, *4th & 5th Sundays. Contra Dance. Free workshop at 6:30pm, live music from 7-10pm. $7. Sometimes, rarely, and depending on what day of the week the month starts, the contra is on 1st, 2nd, 3rd and 5th Sundays. See below*.
*Usuallly 3rd Sunday. Waltz Party - waltzes and other social dances. Free workshop 6-7pm, live music from 7-9pm. $10. Again, and rarely, the Waltz Party could be on the fourth Sunday. See below*
*Here’s the formula for when we dance on Sundays: There is always a contra dance on the 3rd Saturday. The next night (Sunday) is a Waltz Party, which is usually the 3rd Sunday, but If the first day of the month is a Sunday, the calendar gets upsent, and then it's the 4th Sunday. Fortunately, that is rare. The best way to know when we dance is to check the schedule.
MONDAY DANCE
