Dance, learn to dance, watch dancing in Polson

6/6/2018

POLSON — Calling all of you who love Classic Country music to come and join us at our next dance from 7-10 p.m., on Wednesday, June 6, at the Elks on Main Street. The Band also plays Rock from the '50s, '60s and '70s. If you like hamburgers, the Elks puts out a pretty good one before our dance. This is a community dance and everyone is welcome. You do not have to be an Elk member to attend. Dress is casual, just come and enjoy the music and meet new people. We would love to see some young dancers come and have some fun with us too. If you don’t know how to dance, I think there are enough of us there that can help you learn. Now, I am talking any age, from those that would like to learn to those who would just like to get back in the “Swing of Things.” It really is fun and we look forward to you all coming.
