Thursday Night Dance in Old Town - May 26, 2016

Hello Dancers,  

  Thursday Night Dancers will go back to the Old Town Community Church, 2444 Congress Street, San Diego, for the 2nd time this Thursday May 26, 2016.  There'll be snacks and beverages.  A $5 donation will be requested.  It's a "private party" and this is your invitation.  Dancers are welcome to bring a dish of food to share.  DJ Bing will play line dances 6pm-7pm, followed by mixed ballroom and line dancing until 10pm.  DIRECTIONS:  Take I-5 to Old Town Avenue.  Go about 2 blocks towards Old Town (i.e., east towards hill) to San Diego Avenue (a signal lighted intersection) and turn left.  Go a block and make a slight left at a Y-intersection onto Congress Street. The church (2444 Congress St) is on the right, 2 blocks ahead.

P.S. Other Notes: (1) These are really fun ballroom and line dance parties.  This is Thursday night dancing in San Diego.  While the dancing is continuous, there are dancers who are happy to give free dance one-on-one lessons during the dances, in case you don't know the steps of a particular dance.  Hmmm - I bet the simultaneous instructions while others are dancing make these, for example, the best free merengue dancing lessons in San Diego.
