Hello Ballroom Friends,

Welcome to Summer! Please find in this email:Summer Lesson plans, new
officer board, and of course, our delightful end-of-year potluck :)

News

Summer Lessons:

During the Summer, we will have room space reserved in the CUC from 5pm -
9pm Mondays and Wednesdays. However, all lessons are run independently
through our coaches, Christine and Dmitry. This means lesson scheduling and
pricing will vary based on student interest and coach availability, and all
payments should be made directly to the coaches. Lesson schedules and room
reservation information will continue to be announced through the mailing
list.

For the next two Mondays, Christine will be leading all-level standard
workshops from 6:30 to 8pm on campus. At these workshops, dancers will study
initiator and responder jobs, learn simple exercises to practice on your
own, and drills to put it all together with a partner. $15 for students and
$20 for adults, paid to Christine, will cover both lessons.

Dmitry lessons are TBD.

New Officer Board:

Congratulations to our new and re-elected officers! Your new board is as
follows:

President: Sasha

Captain: Karishma

Treasurer: Aditya

CC Chair: Brenna

Secretary: Brandon

PR Manager: Kyr

Lessons Coordinator: Abby

The new officers will be transitioned onto the board over the next few
weeks. We will elect officers to the remaining roles (competition manager
and events coordinator) in the Fall.

End-of-Year Potluck:

Bring food, friends, and fond ballroom memories to our end of year potluck
