Hey All,
This is the last Saturday of Swing club this quarter, which is really sad, but we will be dancing on RIVER STREET!!!!!!! So get ready for an amazing night. Since it is finals we will be dancing from 9pm-midnight. Its going to be fantastic weather that night for dancing so you all should come out and join us. Dress in layers just in case. We will be meeting by the waving lady statue on the east side by East Broad Street (furthest side from MLK). If you look across the river you will see the BIG marriot Hotel. I’d park on Bay by East Broad and walk down the steep staircase. This will direct you closest to us. Then Follow the Music. If you need further directions just let me know. Please DONT WALK BY YOURSELF. If you need a ride please tell Deanna Meadow Thompson. I will help get you there. There won’t be lessons just great dancing and music!
NO Meeting on Monday night next week.
I hope everyone is doing well on their finals and I hope to see you Saturday even if its for an hour or so. Let swing be your time off from work. We will provide you with a great relaxing selection of music and a bunch of friendly faces.
SEE YOU THERE!
Deanna
SCAD Swing Secretary
