11. Announcements for Other Clubs - At the discretion of the Classic Dance Club executive, our announcer may include during his/her regular announcements, information about other dance opportunities that they believe might be of interest to our attendees. Such announcements would be brief including only type of event, date, time, cost and contact information. Sponsors of these events would be allowed to leave business cards or small handouts (8.5” by 11” or less) on our Events Poster table for one or two months prior to the date of their event.

12. Dance Etiquette - Dancers must respect and follow traditional social dance etiquette including:

• Follow the counter-clockwise line-of-dance around the floor for travelling dances (Waltz, Fox Trot, Tango, Quick Step, Country 2-Step, etc.). Less experienced dancers should avoid the outside lane of the dance floor, leaving it available for more advanced dancers.
• Avoid wild or expansive arm and leg movements that could injure other dancers on the dance floor.
• If you decline an invitation to dance, you should sit out for that dance.
• Invite others to dance so that no one is left out of the fun.
