  • Tryouts – We will be holding tryouts on Sunday January 18th from 3-5pm. This will replace the normal newcomer lesson. Make sure you fill out the signup form I sent BY WEDNESDAY! Also let us know if you’re still looking for a partner. Anyone who has already paid dues or intends on doing so can come watch!
  • Leads and Follows – It’ll be held in the evening of 1/24. If you’re a senior or otherwise graduating within a year, sign up to choreograph the dance battle here.
  • Help with recruitment! – We will be at Winterfest TODAY, January 12th, from 4-7pm at the Union. Come help us pass out flyers to recruit new members! We will be handing out flyers on the diag throughout the week as well, depending on the weather, so look out for GroupMe messages in the F25 Members Chat.
