Harvest Moon Ball — THIS SATURDAY!
Houston’s largest and snazziest swing dance occurs annually on Parents’ Weekend right in Rice’s very own Grand Hall. (Psst, that’s this Saturday). Harvest Moon Ball is the perfect opportunity to see social dancing in its natural environment (out on the dance floor) and to show off your moves. We know that due to Ike a lot of new RSDS members have only gotten one or two classes under their belts, so we’re offering a free hour-long intro to swing just before the dance.
WHAT: Harvest Moon Ball
WHERE: Grand Hall, in the RMC (Student Center on Rice Campus)
WHEN: Saturday, Sept. 27
Free lesson 7:00 – 8:00
Dance: 8:00 – midnight
PRICE: RSDS is subsidizing $5 for its members and any Rice students. That makes the price $10 in advance or $15 at the door for RSDS/Rice, which is insanely low for the premier swing dance of the year. WE WILL BE SELLING TIX IN RSDS CLASSES THIS WEEK so bring your money then to get the lowest price. If you can’t make it to class this week, email nweber at rice dot edu to get advance tickets. Or you can always pay at the door for the $15 price. If you know anyone outside of Rice who would like to come, tickets can be bought early online at the HSDS website.
WEAR: “Your sharpest clothing.” This is the night for dress-up, so channel your inner 1940s and ’50s and dress to kill.
MUSIC: Courtesy Houston’s premier swing band, Third Coast Swing.
OTHER: photo booth, performances, competitions, good company, prizes, live music, slick threads, cool moves. =)
Can you provide me a list of upcoming dances or events? Are they open to the public or members only?
