Charlotte Dance Gypsies

Special Event:
Hop for Haiti - Swing Dancers Raise Money Nationwide for Haitian Victims!
Fri. Feb. 26th, 2010
Location: Chantilly Hall, 2101 Shenandoah Ave. Charlotte, NC
Beginner lesson 7:30 - 8:30 pm /
Dance 8:30 - 11:30 pm
Swing dancers in cities all over the country (and now international!)
to raise money for the victims of the devastating earthquake in Haiti.
Live music will be provided by The Alan Kaufman Swing Band
and The Intergalactic Dust Bunnies.
This is a perfect combination of classic swing standards from
Charlotte's premier swing piano stylist and vocalist and good old classic rock n' roll
from the group formed by swing dancers for swing dancing.
There will be guest DJs, great food, and lots of good fun, all for only $12.
The hall is being donated by the Charlotte Country Dancers,
and the band(s) will be performing for free so that every penny
taken in will go directly to benefit those so desperately in need.
For all of you who have wanted to do something to help, this is your opportunity
to do so and have a wonderful evening in the process. Map
