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.
