Try Square Dancing!
|
As the Marysville Schools are closed until further notice the Mainstream Strengthening Workshops are cancelled .
We will be offering New Dancer Classes in the Fall. Please check back for information. For more information on Square Dancing, check out the Mount Baker Council website http://www.sqdance.org/ Handouts club members may print to share. Membership Application |
Happy Hoppers New Dancer Classes will begin Fall 2020,
|
Students are encouraged to get "floor time." This is possible by attending dances hosted by other clubs. For students there are level dances (doesn't include all square dance calls).
Here are 2 links to events for those who are new to square dancing. Of course, all who know square dancing are invited. MBC Events Calendar Page (http://sqdance.org/newcal/calendar.html) MBC Student Level Dance Page (http://sqdance.org/level_dances.html) ALSO, as a student, when you attend a Hopper Level dance, your admission is free. |
Whirlybirds has first Friday Fun Fest each month. One of the activities is to keep your square going as the calls get faster - last square standing gets a coveted Hot-Hash Ho-Down dangle. Bertha and Patty are two recent recipients.
|
We also have social events throughout the year - from summer picnic to wreath-making in the winter. Square dancing is a fun way to meet new friends while staying active, challenging the mind and the body.

Some of our 2019 graduates had this to say:
- "What can I say but Absolutely Fun, Fun, Fun!";
- "I'm hooked";
- "My only complaint is that my cheeks hurt from smiling so much"
