Lindy in the Park

My favorite place to go dancing is Lindy in the Park (www.lindyinthepark.com)on Sundays. When we first started this remarkable event 10 years ago, we took over the bandshell when it was not in use by someone who actually paid for the priviledge, plugged in our speakers and danced about once a month. As it increased in popularity we increased it to every other week and finally every week. When the construction began and the bandshell was closed, we moved to FJK drive right behind the De Young museum. Now, thanks to Seattle's contribution of Hep Jen to our comunity, we have a free half hour dance lesson every Sunday which has done much to bring new people to the lindy comunity. This weekend we celebrate our tenth anniversary with a potluck barbeque and extra long hours.
