• Beginners welcome!
• No partner needed!
• Costumes are not required!

Costumes? Only if you wish!

At this event, many folks will dress whimsically in honor of the Celtic theme (think Scottish and Irish), and touch of green or wearing of the plaid adds to the fun of the day, but there are always friends in modern casual dress. We subscribe to the popular phrase, “Costumes admired but not required.”

Important costume note:

If you choose to wear a costume, please be certain you can move easily in your costume, and do not wear anything that would impede you, or others, while dancing. Please note: dresses that trail on the ground are not allowed, as they impede dancing for all. High heels are not recommended for this style of dance.
