    A lot of the Swing Team is competing in Open Lindy at Dancesport tomorrow. We are scheduled to start at 8:12pm. So if you show up there (in the Wilk) you could probably find a few open spots in some cars that are going up afterwards.

    From Jane and Shulie again.

    thing 1 and thing 2:

    Just confirming the FACTS: This Friday, November 18th, WE'RE DOING IT AGAIN!!! Everyone, spread the word to all your friends, family, co-workers, church members, and whoever else you might associate with. Last Friday was INCREADIBLE! Let's keep it going.

    FYI, we are working on trying to stay later this time.

    Remember lessons start at 8:00pm. We will have someone to help the beginners this time, that way we can teach a JAM class. Our goal is to prepare everyone to bust out some killer jams during the ULX. Lets get ready to show the world that UTAH can JAM with the best!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    SEE YA THERE!

    Second, since Thursday is the last day of classes (hooray!) there will be no "official" dance this weekend. However, people will be dancing Saturday in the KMB from 8-11:30 or so.

    ok. so i meant no official dance.

    that doesn't usually mean no dance at all...

    tonight was fun. all of you follows that decided you had more important things to do missed out.

    and we didn't need you anyway.

    even though there were about 5 leads too many...

    so don't come dancing. see if we care.

    Well, the dancing part may be more fun, but it's definitely more fun to look at your partner when you are dancing with a girl follow.

    Everyone come to the Golden Skillet, including you Savoyem, and we can donate the profits to help cover your registration fee.

    As a "Most of the time, NON-PROFIT" Organization, it may not be much, but if alot of people come, it could be amazing!!!
