Just Dance! is a new adult/teen RE opportunity meeting on Saturdays 10-11 a.m. in the chapel from 5/17- 6/28, an 8-week session. It is not a “how-to” class, but a chance to express yourself through movement. Many religious traditions practice ecstatic dance. I attended classes of this type for over a year in WA. (Floaty fabric and shakers provided.) Free-will donation to UUCF, $5 suggested. Kathy Myers, 301-524-3438.
