Hello Gainesville Area Israeli Dancers and Friends,

Israeli Dancing this Thursday at B'nai Israel.

International Folk Dancing on Friday.

We will not be doing West Coast on Sunday nights at 601 in December. Look to your email for last minute notice about possible dance opportunities when we can find space, possibly in someone's home or elsewhere. If you know of someplace or would like to have a small group over one night, let me know. Could be fun and a nice change of pace.

Tuesday Richard has his Swing class at the Boltin Center at 7.

Wednesday at 7 at the Eagles Club, the old Dubs, West Coast Swing with Josh and Bri. Free.

Thursday night is Museum Nights at the Harn from 7 to 9, with Swing dancing and Ice Cream social. Free.
