Our Next Dance ...
The CSDS Board of Directors is excited to announce plans to resume in-person monthly dances in 2022, with our first scheduled dance on Saturday, January 15th! Location and lesson instructor are TBA so in the meantime, save the date! Advanced registration is required due to occupancy restrictions and registration (by email) opens January 1st, 2022.
Until further notice, all CSDS in-person events are vaccine only with masks required; see the CSDS website for our attendance/health policies including vaccine verification details. We are monitoring current conditions and reserve the right to make changes, including cancellation, to our attendance/health policies at any time. We are cautiously optimistic about returning to in-person events in 2022 and greatly appreciate your continued patience, understanding and support as we continue to navigate these challenging times.
Annual Board of Directors Election
The Board of Directors is also happy to report we received no objections to our proposal so we are extending the term of our current Directors for another year and postponing our annual election to October 2022. Thank you to our current Directors for serving this extended term. As a reminder to the membership, we do have two vacant Director positions and per the CSDS Bylaws, Directors may be elected to fill these vacancies for the remainder of the term, by vote of the majority of Directors in office. If you are interested in filling one of these two vacancies to serve on the Board, let us know so we can fill you in on the roles and responsibilities of being a Director!
