IndepenDance Halloween Update

Unfortunately, due to unforeseen circumstances, we’ve had to make the difficult decision to cancel our Halloween IndepenDance.

We’re hoping to be back as normal in November and will keep you all updated.

Thank you so much for understanding and for all your continued support of IndepenDance.
