Not meeting Fri Oct 4, 2019 - Oconomowoc camp

We will not be meeting for Friday night dancing in Downers Grove on Friday, Oct 4, 2019, because many of us will be attending the Oconomowoc Fall Folk Dance Camp 
Hope to see you there, or on subsequent Fridays when we should have some new dances to share.
