Welcome!
Southern Oregon Contra Dance (SOCD)
News!
The SOCD Board continues to meet on an as needed basis (most recently on 2021-Dec-7) and determined that we WILL NOT attempt to schedule a dance prior to 2022-March. We will continue to address the possibility of opening back up later in 2022. We also make announcements to our Newsletter on this matter.
We wish everyone Happiness & Health. Hope to see you again soon.
