From Susan
Good class! Everyone is doing great!
I would suggest that you try to dance as often as you can during the holiday break. There are several opportunities. They are listed on the sheet from Michael.
The one that is new is the workshop/dance at Samena Squares, Thursday, December 30, from 7:30 to 9:30 p.m. The Samena Squares dance at the Juanita Community Club in Kirkland. The address is 13027 100th Ave NE, Kirkland. I believe there is a map link on their web site: http://www.samenasquares.org/
There are directions at the bottom of the page.
And don't forget New Year's Eve. That dance will be at the Juanita Community Club too, 9-12:30. I have lots of fun things planned. Dress is casual. Non-square dancing friends and family are welcome. They will be able to dance every other dance and even some of the squares.
So wherever you dance have a great holiday celebration the next two weeks! See you in January!
Merry Christmas!
Susan
