Summer Dancing Events
Even though it's summer and many people are out camping and hiking - we are all still finding good places to go out and dance. There are the EIRMC River Concerts and Alive at Five events adding to the mix this summer in Idaho Falls. Last Friday we had a large group out dancing to the Jazz House Big Band at the Rotary fundraiser in Pocatello. We all had a great time with dancers there from Pocatello, Idaho Falls and Rexburg.
