New-ish Relaxed Covid Precautions
Masking or testing for COVID is no longer required, unless Dane County's CDC hospital admission level is high or red. Check this map to see the CDC level (updated by Friday evening). People on our email list will also receive a notice if the level becomes high or red.
If it is red or high, participants must either wear an effective mask - N95, KN95, KF94 - or have a negative self-administered rapid antigen test after 5 pm on the day of the dance.
Please do not attend if you are having symptoms of respiratory illness. We encourage all to keep up-to-date on vaccinations.
Note on Calendar and Time Zones
The calendar below adjusts based on the time zone you're in. For example, if you're in the eastern time zone, our 7:30 pm dances will look they're happening at 8:30 pm.
Almost every Tuesday, year-round, hall open at 7:15, dancing to begin promptly at 7:30 to about 9:30 pm, at the Wil-Mar Center.
Your donations are the sole source for our hall rentals. Please give what you can — many folks give about $5. For students, $3 is typical. If you're coming regularly, you could consider paying $50 for three months of dancing.
If you are interested in calling or sitting in with the band, please contact us and introduce yourself. The music for the co-op band (MadCoCo) is available here.
