Dancing Bears Events Calendar
ANCHORAGE CONTRA DANCES!
We now welcome you to a new season of contra dance fun.
Watch this website and the Dancing Bears Community Facebook page for further information about dance schedule when it becomes available.
Please Bring clean dry shoes to dance in. Help us keep our dance floors free of wet dirt and slush. Thanks!
This is how we take care of each other and our community now and always-
Please choose to stay home if you are sick
If you have to cough or sneeze, cover with your elbow or shirt
(better yet leave the room/cough/then wash)
Washing hands– Sing a little song while you work the soap all over your hands
to ensure you wash for at least 20 seconds.
Hot water and mechanical action with soap is what will carry away the germs.
Don’t touch your face-This can take self-awareness and practice.
We have Antibacterial products around. They work best on Clean hands.
Sing Twinkle Twinkle, Happy Birthday, Row Row Row your Boat.
Songs work equally well for Coronavirus, Influenze A, B and the Common Cold.
The Rumors are TRUE! CONTRA DANCING IS ALIVE AND WELL IN ANCHORAGE!
