Also, lessons this Sunday will be taking place in Trinkle Hall in the Campus Center. PLEASE NOTE: Due to the scheduling office, the times for lessons are a bit wonky this week. They will be from 2:30- 5:00. I repeat, due to the scheduling office, the times for lessons this Sunday will be from 2:30-5:00 in Trinkle Hall in the Campus Center. We will be having a West Coast Swing lesson taught by David Goldenberg, our current Publishing Chair, followed by a second round of Hustle lessons! See  you all then!

Unfortunately, due to a lack of sufficient Wednesdays left in the semester, this past session with Diane was our last of the semester. However, since we know that all of you are still craving some new dance moves, this Wednesday (tomorrow) we will be having a Polka lesson. This amazingly fun (and ridiculous) dance will be brought to you by our current Webmaster, Katie Van Haasteren, and our current Fundraising Chair, Charles Fliss, our resident polka-aficionado. It starts as usual at 6:00 through 9:00 and will include hours of social dancing, as well as the obvious: fun. Take a break from studying and come on out to Chesapeake A tomorrow evening!

Don’t forget about Sex, Drugs, and Rock ‘n Roll, our social dance this Friday in Little Theater in the basement of the Campus Center. The dance costs $4 and will run from 7:00-11:00. Come on out dressed up in attire for one of the titular themes and dance the night away to all styles of Ballroom Dance! Hope to see you all there!!

Are you interested in purchasing a Ballroom Dance club T-shirt or Sweatshirt? Did you pre-order a t-shirt or sweatshirt last semester and have yet to pick it up? Then stop by Diane’s lessons today in Chesapeake A (anytime between 6:00-9:00) to pick them up! Sweatshirts are zip-up hoodies and are $35. T-shirts are the maroon Fleckerled shirts. Stop by and check them out!

Also, at today’s lessons several of our returning members will be sporting previous club t-shirts. Come and check it out to see if you would like to order some! Depending on interest, we may be reordering some of our old T-shirts! A list will also be available on Sunday!

Also, if you are a newcomer interested in going to DCDI the weekend of November 6-8, please e-mail Brian (bgrich@wm.edu) by October 16th (THIS FRIDAY). Please include which dances you would like to compete in and any partnerships you may have already created.

If you are interested in making a shoe run in order to purchase Ballroom dance shoes, please e-mail Laura (lkpend@wm.edu) with your interest. She will compile a list and try to figure out a date based on interest, so keep checking your e-mails!!

  • Don’t forget to pay your club dues! Non-competition dues are only $5 a semester. These dues are what allow us to provide free Sunday lessons and practice spaces 3 days a week. So please pay your dues to our Treasurer Kate Vea as soon as possible!
