Planning Events

Since becoming a dance teacher, I've seen events from inside and out. It's good to remember to cover your basics so people aren't disappointed.
The tent last night shorted us on several accounts.
An expensive tent with lighting calls for a class of food - which can be provided by participants, but should not be chips. Dancers need a certain volume of music and a steady beat - speakers and connections must be tested ahead. The dance floor was large enough, and plywood is okay unless it gets wet. Alcohol can be pleasant if properly taken care of.
Scheduling might present difficulties, especially these days with so many activities offered. (Who knew the World Series with the Red Sox would be on the Saturday before Halloween?)
