http://nccnetwork.wordpress.com/2011/08/11/street-party-event-fwd/
Organised by local community groups at Sneinton Hermitage, as we hold our classes just round the corner, we've
been asked to come along and enjoy the event and also do a bit of
dancing too which will be great fun; I love getting the chance to dance
outside.
All 30s, 40s, 50s era dancers welcome. We could
perhaps do a Shim Sham demo and some freestyle dancing too. No pressure
- just fun.
Hope lots of you are available. Please pass on to any dancers you know who'd be interested.
For you facebook users I've set up an event: http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=258929090791955

18 December | Christmas Fuddle and Social Dance at Sneinton!
Old School Hall, Windmill Lane, Sneinton, Nottm, NG2 4QB
It's our last session before Christmas so it's time to celebrate!
Join us from 5:30pm through till 9:00pm. £3 on the door plus a food or drink item to share.
Barry and I'll be teaching a simple 20s Charleston class to get us warmed up - no experience necessary so whether you've made it to every class this year, one or none you'll be able to join in and have some fun.
Following that there'll be lots of social dancing, a shim sham, maybe
the odd jam circle and whatever food and drink goodies you bring along
to share plus I'll be providing the usual teas, coffees, soft drinks and
biccies.
All welcome - the more will definitely be the merrier
- so come on down and swingout for Christmas with us at Sneinton this
Sunday!
