OSU's Fall Quarter is set to begin on September 23, with most students returning on September 20. This is super exciting for Swing Dance Club! We've got a whole new batch of officers, ready to expand the Club to even greater involvement and membership than ever before.
Here's a glimpse of all the exciting stuff we've got planned for Welcome Week 2009:
Monday Meetings
Meetings are in Pomerene 213 (same room as last year), but an hour later with lessons starting at 8PM. We'll be starting a week early, September 21, to take advantage of Welcome Week.
Involvement Fair
The Involvement Fair is Monday, September 21, from 12:00 - 4:00 PM on the Oval. We'll be manning a booth, handing out flyers, and maybe even using a laptop to show some cool videos. This could be a fun chance to wander around, dance, and hand out flyers (see Lindy Bombing below).
United We Dance
This is Saturday, September 26 at 8:00 PM in the North Gym. The schedule is as follows:
DanceSportOSU 8:00-8:45
Swing Dance Club 8:50-9:35
TangoOSU 9:40-10:25
This beginning-of-the-year mixer is a great experience for all interested dancers to come see what OSU has to offer. ALL (including non-OSU-affiliated persons) interested people are welcome to attend for FREE!

Lindy Bombing
I'm thinking of three particular instances:
- Involvement Fair - Mon Sept. 21 12:00-4:00PM - we wander around, dance, and hand out flyers
- Picnic with the Buckeyes - Tues Sept. 22 6:00-7:30PM - we show up with flyers and dance to the Columbus Jazz Orchestra! It takes place on the South Oval and should be a fun experience for everyone involved!
- On the Oval - TBD - We'll just hit the Oval one day with some flyers and a boombox and have some fun! I'm thinking this will wait until a few weeks into the Quarter so new members can get in on the fun!
There's a lot to be excited about at OSU this Fall with regards to Swing Dancing!
Take care,
Rob
