Registration will begin at 5:00 pm in the Lounge prior to lessons start time. Please have your application completed to speed the process along as classes will start promptly at 5:30. This may take longer than anticipated so please come early if you have not already sent in your application prior to September 7^th.
Note About Taking Classes – Only One At A Time Please

Members are only allowed to take one class on Tuesday night.　 So pick the class you want to take (Basic, or Intermediate ) but not more than one class.　 You are also requested to stay in the Basic and Intermediate class for the 6 week period and not switch to any other class during that period of time or on the same night.　　We are requiring this as the classes are generally full and we want to have as many people participate as possible.　 One person taking 2 classes will keep someone else from being able to attend any class at all.　 Also, it is important to take the class that fits your skill level.　 If you are still working on the basic steps, it is not appropriate to move up to the intermediate class.　 You are required to be proficient at one level before you move up to the next level.
