General Announcements:



Ohio Star Ball: Register THIS WEEK: We are going to travel to Columbus on
Nov 19-21 to compete at Ohio Star Ball! You really do not want to miss
this; it is a phenomenal experience and is typically one of the highlights
of the semester for all who attend. We compete in the college sections
during the day and watch the professional finals at night in a black-tie
attire event. The trip is subsidized for ALL members who paid dues,
regardless of enrollment status at CMU.

fill out this commitment form by November 1:
https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1ORH7oUOMJuMICtQ-VS665bI2WQw6UyM7cVOEyem53YM/edit.
Fees and registration will be due November 8th.



Late Rounds: Monday and Wednesday, 10:15pm. Want to get better fast? Dance
more, and do more rounds. These rounds help you get ready for competitions,
practice what you’ve learned, and will take your dancing to the next level.
We will do all 4 styles, and an extra round of Latin and Standard for the
very motivated! Especially if you want to go to the Ohio Star Ball, you
should be coming to these, but even if not, it will help you.



Membership Dues: $40 for students. $80 for non-students. Cash or check.



Mentoring groups created: For those of you that have paid dues, we are
having a mentorship program running for the semester, split among different
houses hosted by our veterans. If you are not currently in a mentor group,
it is because you haven’t paid your dues. Pay your dues to Arthur and he
will add you to a group.



Spirited Sway Community Social: On October 30th, there’s a Ballroom & Latin
dance social party! We will depart from the front of Cohon University
Center between 6:40-7:10pm depending on drivers. For more information and
to sign up either as a driver or passenger go here:
