Lindy Hopathon (7 February 2009)

A massive 12-hour non-stop dance marathon in aid of the Cystic Fibrosis trust!

This event raised over £6000 for this fantastic cause last year – help us to beat that this year!  You can come along as a sponsored dancer for some or all of the 12 hours, join in a fun absolute beginners’ lesson, or just come along for the social dancing in the evening.  All proceeds from the door will go to the charity.  The only rule is that there must be someone on the dance floor, actually dancing, at all times for the duration of the marathon.  Even if you can’t make the event itself, please consider supporting us by donating online at our our JustGiving page.

There will be plenty of fun and games to keep us entertained throughout the day (as well as raise a few more pounds!), plus snacks and refreshments to keep us well-fueled.  And as if 12 hours of dancing were not enough, there will also be a blues after-party from midnight till the wee hours for anyone still on their feet!
