Please click here to review our full COVID safety protocols. The policy will change if conditions warrant. In warm weather, windows in the hall may be open for good ventilation. We occasionally have to depart from our usual dance time, or (rarely) cancel a dance on short notice, so check web site before you come. Note: Strawberry Shortcake night was originally scheduled for tonight, but was postponed a week due to the cold rainy weather we’ve been having.
