Andrew Weitzen posted on July 29, 2010 16:36 Article Rating

Hello Gainesville Ocala Social Dancers,

Remember, next week is the first Wednesday of the month and that means Josh's monthly West Coast Swing dance party.

This is the last Friday for the UF Swing Club for a little while.

If you need something to do this weekend, go see The Producers at the Gainesville Community Theater. This is their last weekend.

Let me know of any other programs or corrections.

Happy Dancing,
Andy
