.

There was some confusion regarding the standard review sessions so
Christine is holding another Int 3 Review session.

*Sunday, 09/01, Tepper Simmons A*
Int 3 Review Session - 3:00-3:30pm  (with help until 4:00 pm)
Silver Smooth Lesson - 4:00-5:00pm

For the Silver Smooth Lesson the *cost of $90 will be divided by the number
of people attending.*

For example if 10 people show up to the lesson, it will cost $9 for each
person.

If there are any further questions please reach out to any officer!

Happy Dancing!
Brandon Smithson
CMU BDC Secretary
