Take some flyers with you!
Written by Annie Gleason   
Wednesday, 25 June 2008
  Please help us to advertise our monthly dance to the Swing Dance Community! As you know, the more dancers the better--in life and at our dances! We need a volunteer to copy dance flyers and mail them to local dance venues. Each month, our wonderful volunteer, Lisa Repetto, creates a flyer announcing our upcoming dance. You would be printing it out, making copies, and mailing them to dance venues (or taking them with you to dances you attend). We will compensate you for all expenses incurred. Please contact Annie Gleason at This e-mail address is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it if you can help out on a somewhat regular basis! You can always find the latest flyers in our Documents section.

WE NEED YOU - Easy, fun and quick
Written by Maureen Stockdale   
Monday, 31 March 2008
How would you like to be one of the first friendly faces that people see when they enter the front door at our monthly dance? Say "Hi," reserve a dance, make sure other dancers feel welcome…sound like fun? YES! All you will need to do is work ½ shift (half an hour). To help the line move quickly, ask the person in line if they are a Next Gen (or other club) member or not. Let them know the price, $7 for Next Gen (or other club) members, $12 if not. Then once they’ve paid, stamp their hand. That’s it! Sounds simple, right? So, email This e-mail address is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it to let us know that you can help. See you at the dance!
