English Country Dance, Glen Ellyn
Details
Chicagoland English Country Dance
Join us for Chicagoland West English Country Dance (ECD) from 3:30-6 p.m. at the The Gymnasium at Grace Lutheran Church. English Country Dance is social and pattern-based, with a caller guiding each dance—similar to Contra and barn dancing. No partner or experience is needed; all figures are walked through before each dance.
We recommend bringing your own water bottle. If you bring snacks to share, we suggest they be bite-sized and easy to eat neatly.
(*******Come early from 1-3:15 pm if you would also like to participate in International Folk Dance!)
Admission:
To help cover the cost of the hall rental, the suggested donation is $5 per person. If we have live music, we may request $10 per person.
