Cast Off 8’s Square Dance

Just as social dance took off after the pandemic of 1918, all forms of community participatory dance are taking off now. Contemporary square dance is a great way to be active, meet new people and get back into a lively lifestyle after these many months of restricted activity. Square dancing has evolved a great deal compared to the grade school memories people have; it is an upbeat and vibrant activity.

Interested community members can come for free square dancing this September on Wednesdays at Lothrop School. No experience necessary!

Wednesday, September 28 is the last free Cast Off 8’s event of the season. It will feature an ice cream social and be held at 7 pm, at Lothrop School in Pittsford.

Try out some easy square dance calls and have a good time dancing to pop, rock, country, hip hop, and other popular music. Individuals and couples are equally welcome; there are others to dance with.

If you have a good time, you may wish to join the fall class, a low-cost activity held in 9-10 week segments. There is no pressure to join, but the benefits are a healthy body, mind, and social life.

Wear comfortable clothing and shoes. Check the website at www.castoff8s.com or Facebook at Cast Off 8’s Square Dance Club for more information.
