Tuesday 11/24
Hot Club of Durham Swing Dance (Directions)
7pm: Beginner Lesson: Shim Sham!
8-11pm: Dancing!
Shim Sham–Last week (and the week before, and possibly the week before that), you may have noticed us dancing solo choreography every time a certain song comes on (or sometimes even a random song). If you think we look silly, and you want to join us next time this happens, come at 7pm for the lesson, and we’ll teach you. Here’s some folks dancing the Shim Sham for Frankie Manning on Youtube. (The largest Shim Sham was danced by over 1000 people in May at Frankie’s 95th Birthday Festival!)
Deejays–Ken Hanson will be our featured DJ & Joe Jackson will start us off and close the night as our house DJ.

Iron Chef – Hot Club!
At our last Hot Club of Durham Dance we announced a special contest for our November 24th dance this year. In honor of the day that we give thanks to our Native American friends for saving our butts in Massachusetts, we are going to have a cook off!
The Plan
- Get 5 people to sign up to bake desserts.
- Announce on 11/17/2009 what the secret ingredient will be. Each contestant’s dessert must contain this secret ingredient.
- Contestants will bring their desserts to Hot Club on 11/24/2009 to be eaten and judged by everyone.
The Prize
The winner of the baking contest will be named Iron Chef and receive a $20 gift certificate good for admission to Hot Club dances or classes!
We already have two signed up! Only 3 more slots left for the chance to win!
