Our Next Dance
Our next local TFOOTD contra dance will be Sunday, April 26th at Town Apartments North, 1900 61st Ave N, St. Petersburg, FL. As usual, beginner instructions will start at 3:30pm with experienced dancers encouraged to help during that brief introductory period. The dancing will then continue until 7:00pm with additional instructions given as needed for moves that may be less familiar to newer folks.
TFOOTD Board of Directors Elections
Public Board Meeting April 26, 2:30-3:30pm
In preparation for our annual elections for TFOOTD officers, we will be having an in-person board meeting at 2:30PM, one hour before the start of our regular 4th Sunday contra dance at Town Apartments North on April 26th. All dancers are invited and pizza will be available during the meeting.
As you know, it takes a village to make contra dancing happen in our Tampa Bay area. Thanks to our president, Sarah Mitchell, the rest of our current board members (listed below under Contact US), and all those who volunteer in one way or another to keep our semi-monthly dances going!
At this April 26th board meeting, we will have open discussion about the current status of TFOOTD and our dance community, as well as prepare for the election of TFOOTD board members. Most importantly, we will be looking for dancers willing to serve as officers or members-at-large on the new fiscal year’s TFOOTD board of directors. Current members are all eligible to stand for reelection, if desired. New candidates are also welcome in nomination for any board position they might wish to consider.
The elections for board membership in the upcoming fiscal year will then be held at the regular 2nd Saturday contra dance at the Polish American Society on May 9th. As usual, this open voting will take place during the customary break midway through the evening’s dances. Of course we’ll look forward to seeing you on the dance floor, but also we hope you’ll consider helping our dance community thrive by serving on the TFOOTD board!
