Sam Dechenne is coming to town and he is bringing the Late Risers to Jamaica Pond on Sunday August 18th! If you have heard them before, you know that they are freaking exquisite. Not to mention extremely chill and well-dressed. Come and dance! ***Schedule*** - 4pm to 5pm: Lindy hop lesson with Raquel and Justin! Suitable for folks at all stages of their dancing journey, including those who have never tried swing dancing before :) - 5pm to 6pm: Break for load-in and sound check - 6pm to sunset (around 8): dancing! *** Suggested donation *** - $20 general - $10 student/senior/underemployed - FREE for volunteers! Please respond to this message if you would be willing to help out by working the door for half an hour between 6 and 8, and let us know any preferences you may have regarding time (early, late, whenever). We can accept payment at the door by cash or Venmo. All donations go to support our mission, which is about swing dancing with old and new friends in the JP area, honoring the roots of the art form in pre-WWII Harlem, great live music, and enjoying nature, especially the sunset as seen from the pavilion by the boathouse at Jamaica Pond. *** Policies *** See https://sites.google.com/view/jpjitterbugs/policies *** Getting there *** - There is a parking lot at the corner of Spring Park and Centre that is free on Sundays.
