Swing into Spring
and the
Impact of COVID-19

At its September 2020 meeting, the Swing into Spring Committee reviewed existing Ontario health protocols, as well as local and provincial restrictions and requirements for gatherings.  These factors, along with a lack of information about availability and cost of renting a venue make effective planning for the 2021 event difficult, if not impossible.  Therefore, the Committee reluctantly (but, we believe, realistically) agreed not to hold Swing into Spring 2021.
 
Swing into Spring is a three-way partnership involving the Swing into Spring Committee and our two sponsoring associations, EOSARDA and SVSRDA.  All three parties agree that there is no reasonable path leading to a 2021 Swing into Spring event.
 
As a result, the Committee has closed off agreements with staff for the 2021 weekend.  Dancers who had their 2020 registration fees carried over to the 2021 event, will be contacted by the Treasurer about refunding those fees.
 
The Swing into Spring Committee will use the coming months to plan for a fantastic event again in 2022.
