Come see what square dancing is all about at one of our summer open houses! No experience required, no partner required, no special clothes or shoes required (flip-flops probably won't work though).
Open houses happen on the following dates - all of them Tuesdays. They run from 7:00 to 9:00 p.m. and are held at the Lutheran Church of the Holy Communion. The entrance we use is at 2111 Sansom St.
