Announcements and Reminders
Covid-19 policy reminders:
Vaccination is still encouraged but not required, and this spring we changed to masks optional for social dancing. It will be up to the discretion of the instructor whether masks must be worn during classes, so please continue to bring masks with you to class (and social dancing to respect the wishes of those who would prefer to dance with masked partners).
Pricing of 802 Westie Events:
This spring we changed our class and dance pricing to a suggested donation rather than a cost. If you are feeling generous and have the ability to give more, that allows others to give less while still ensuring we cover costs. Thank you for continuing to support 802 Westie Collective and our mission to provide classes and social dancing to the community! (Note that we are now using square rather than venmo, so remember to bring your wallet)
