If you feel sick on dance night, then please stay home. Please show care for the community and we'll see you next time. Thank you for your honesty and concern for others in our community.
If you test positive for COVID within 5 days after a dance, then please send an email so we can alert others to potential exposure. Thanks. We will collect your current phone number and email at the dance for contact tracing purposes. We are hopeful that we will not have to contact-trace anyone.
