Puddletown Squares, Seattle’s square dance club for Gays, Lesbians,
and their friends will be having a Community Square Dance with caller
Susan Morris, December 29th at West Seattle Tibbets Methodist Church,
3940 41st Ave SW, from 7–9:30pm. $10 dollars at the door.
The Community Dance Program is a big change from the type of square
dancing that Puddletown Squares usually does, in that dancers can
come when they can and learn everything they need to dance that
evening. The caller calls squares, mixers, circle dances, traditional
dances, contras, trios, and mecolanzas. The dances are easily learned
and always walked through before dancing them.
Square dancing is fun for all ages and is a great alternative to the
bars for the gay community. Longtime dancer and treasurer of
Puddletown Squares, Ross Crawshaw-Lopton says, "Square Dancing is one
of the few events in our community where not only do men and women
have fun together, but they bring their kids and their parents and
their straight friends!"
