Updated main dance page with
current fall schedule. Note that our new dance
location, the First United
Methodist Church in Goshen, has a wonderful
springy wood floor for dancing. The space is an old gym small
enough for good acoustics, but big enough
for good dancing. There's easy access to water, restrooms, and parking.
Hooray! Many thanks to Goshen College for letting us use their old gym
for our first three season. Please spread the word about our new
location. See the dance page for more info.
