| Note:
The information on this page is provided mostly by the local venues, bands,
and dancers. This webpage is part of a larger website run by someone who
is focused on swing dancing in Boston, Massachusetts and it
is provided as a convenience to readers who might be interested
in looking for possible dance venues in Maryland. However, I do
not live there and do not have the time or money to call every venue
regularly for updates (I don't make money off dancing). With that in
mind, I suggest calling up the dance venues to confirm their dance
events. Please write to
dancenet@havetodance.com with any new information that you'd like
to share and please review this website's
policies
before writing in.
Please note that the venues are not always diligent about sending me changes so *call ahead*. |
