Seeya dancin' -- 

Jim Ewing 

The purpose of this e-news and website is to have a place where out-of-towners can find places to West Coast Swing dance when they travel to any spot on the West Coast and a couple of states inland. Promoters, Instructors, Dance Studios who put on WCS events are well advised to send me their event info as far in advance as possible so travelers can plan to attend. A suggest template containing the event info needed is posted at http://www.wcs-dancer.com/EventTemplate.html 

If you have a swing event happening anywhere in California, Nevada, Oregon, Washington, Idaho, New Mexico, Arizona, or Hawaii  (other states ok too), or if you know a good spot to dance in your Local area, and would like the info about it published in this e-newsletter and posted on http://www.wcs-dancer.com website, e-mail me what you would like published and I'll publish it. I reserve the right to edit the material as I deem appropriate, however, most of the time what you write is what gets published. This is received by over 3,200 dancers and continues to grow.

Deadline for this newsletter is Monday night of the week of the event. I prefer to receive it sometime during the weekend before or earlier so I have time to update the website with your info, as well as write this thing up.. Timing is everything... Sending me your info the day of, or the day before your event is useless...

If this is being sent to you by someone else and you would like to receive it directly, reply with  "ADD to list" in the subject line and indicate your city location and/or club affiliation, and your first and last name (I want to put you on the correct list for your area/club). If you are receiving two or more copies of this e-news, let me know and I'll delete the extras. If you wish to unsubscribe, reply with Unsubscribe in the text or subject line.
