Running Calendar of Round Dance Events

 

Thanks for visiting to check up on upcoming dances.  Dances in Houston and its nearby vicinity will be in bold print.  Where I have been able find a flier the event name will be a link in blue.  Click on it to see the flier. Usually you can click on the e-mail addresses if you want to send a message to that person about the respective event.  Club names in blue link to a club’s home page or other relevant site.  Please be aware that the dates and times that I report here are often established well ahead of the actual event.  Sometimes these change!  Many events require a reservation even if not shown.  Please confirm any information that may inconvenience you before you make a trip.  As always, “All dates are subject to change!”

 

Everyone’s input, both cuers and dancers, is immensely helpful.  Please let me know when ever you have an event or change of schedule that you would like your dancers and guests to be aware of.  I try to keep up with various WEB sites and flyers but I often miss what I feel is important information.  You are my best source of information.

 

If you are aware of any incorrect or absent information on this calendar please e-mail me at broker@hal-pc.org.  Please let me know if there is a round dance event that I have missed.  I would welcome any help along those lines.  In the same vein, please e-mail me any digital round dance information (flyers, programs, maps, etc.) or links to flyers already on line for events that I have mentioned or ones you are notifying me of.
