USA Dance Madison will not be hosting a New Year's Eve dance this Winter. Instead, the Governing Board has decided to host two dances during each of the Winter months - January, February, and March. So, besides our regular monthly dance on the 3rd Saturday of each month, we will be adding another dance on the 1st Saturday during the months of January, February, and March 2023. The venue will continue to be The Colonial Club in Sun Prairie for all these dances, and the time remains 6:30 - 9:30 PM.
