Embracing Squares

Modern Square Dancing is 'Friendship set to Music'.  Whirl & Twirl continues to support the link between Round Dancing & Square Dancing.

Club Members currently support many local clubs and serve on the committees of the Square Dance Callers Club SDCCGB, the Association of Square Dance Clubs BAASDC and the GSI.

The next event out of the bag is rather special, it is a 'WINTER EXTRAVAGANZA in aid of PROSTATE CANCER UK on the 16th January 2016 in Hemel Hemstead.  All Callers & Cuers have given their time for free and the cost of the hall has been donated.  So every penny made will go to charity.  More details to follow shortly.
