Labor Day Weekend the Mosaic Outdoor Clubs of America have their International event in Quebec. I am going to be leading dancing in the evenings among other things. This is a great opportunity for you to visit Montreal and the spectacular Laurentian Mountains.

Quotes:
(Quick note: while we dance for fun, Jewish culture and the Torah are intimately woven into Israeli dancing. So occassionally I like to share some with you. Last week's parsha (Torah portion) was loaded and included these verses.)
- Circumcise therefore the foreskin of your heart and be no more stiffnecked. ~ Deuteronomy 10:16
- Behold, unto the Lord your God belongs the heaven, and the heaven of heavens, the earth, with all that therein is. ~ Dueteronomy 10:14
- And now Israel, what does the Lord your God require of you, but to fear the Lord your God, to walk in all His ways, to love Him, and to serve the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul, to keep for your good the commandments of the Lord. ~ Deuteronomy 10:12-13

The Swing music will include: Big-Band tunes from the 30's & 40's, early rock and roll from the 50's and 60's, rock & roll/funk from the 70's & 80's, and a couple of Texas blues and rock-and roll swing tunes from the 90's. Fast swing/slow swing, East Coast/West Coast/Lindy hop swing; and a few-"belt-buckle polisher's." Foxtrot, cha-cha, rumba, waltz, hustle, nightclub, Cajun and Western 2-step, zydeco, electric-slide, and maybe a tango.
Hopefully I will have a mini-lesson for the "Shim-sham"-one of the first line dances; done to swing music made popular in the late 1920's. Remember-"no excuses! Hope to see you on the dance floor.
