SWINGIN' TERN

The Swingin' Tern Committee Report for July 2:

ST had two dances in June and lost almost $300. The dances were good; there was competition and we had some expensive performers that the dancers enjoyed.

The hall is without air conditioning and the July/August dances are often warm. The current hall is better than the previous one, but it's less convenient to NYC dancers who come in the summer. Rides to and from the Chatham train station are offered to those dancers.

Several dances in our larger area suspend or reduce activity in the summer. Consequently, ST draws more of their dancers, which offsets some attendance loss caused by the heat and vacations.
