Organizational Meeting

Wednesday, Feb 3rd

9PM - The Secret Lair

Join us after the 2-hour crash course next Wednesday to go over some exciting news and plans for 2010.  SwingC'ville has a lot in store for you.

We'll be discussing the upcoming weekly labs as well as unveiling the our new monthly lab + dance schedule!  Get the inside track on all things Swing:  workshops, lessons, events, and of course, The College of Swingology.

Nothing happens without all of the great volunteers who put in effort to making these events a success and we want as many people to be involved as possible!  We'll be organizing ourselves into teams to help divide out the different roles here at SwingC'ville.  Come with ideas!  We want to hear from you!
