The following Saturday, May 12, at 7 p.m., it’s swing time for everyone with the 2012 Beacon Rocks! Swing Dance Fundraiser. Savoy Swing Club Performance Troupe will put on a demo, followed by a short swing dance lesson. Then the rest of the evening will be your chance to show off your moves to lots of swing music. There will be refreshments and raffles, and all funds raised will go to support the 2012 Beacon Rocks! music series.
All ages are welcome. Admission is $15; kids 12 and under by donation.
Swing dancing sounds fun! Has anyone gone to one of these and is there a large turn out?
Last years swing dance fundraiser was very successful and the turn out was great. And it is for a good cause, bringing arts and music to the Beacon Hill neighborhood. Food, drink, raffles, dancing, what’s not to like?
Does anyone know what they will teach for a dance? Night Club 2 Step, East Coast, Salsa etc?
