Four Year Anniversary Dance!!!

Saturday, November 3rd celebrates four years of Swing Junction's monthly big band dance.  This dance wouldn't be possible without the time and talent of the Jazz House Big Band.  It's amazing to be able to swing dance to a live big band every month.

Thank you also to all our volunteers, especially the Hassel Family.  They help us keep the dances running smoothly.

We hope to see you on November 3rd.  There will be fun door giveaways to celebrate our anniversary!

See you on the dance floor.
