*Lunch: If you missed Tuesday’s call out for studio trained dancers and would like to check out the dance club, we have another meeting today in the drama room at lunch.  Bring your food, and comfortable clothing, and we’ll add your name to our Advanced Dancers.  Studio dance experience is essential.  This is not a class where you’ll learn to dance, it’s a club for those who already do!
