Demonstration team
We will be asking for dancers to volunteer by signing up at the AGM on 19th October. The aim is to have a repertoire of several dances that any of the team could do at short notice, with maybe one or two rehearsals. If we have a larger pool to draw from, we should be able to accept more invitations without overburdening a few people.
Some of you signed up last year. If you are not on our list and would be willing to help us, but are not at the AGM, please email us.
