Plan to join us December 2-4, 2022!
COVID protocol:
- Proof of vaccination (and boosting, if eligible) will be required.
- High quality masks are required indoors. Plain cloth masks, gaiters and bandanas are NOT permitted. We require a well-fitting mask, covering nose and mouth, such as a blue disposable mask or an N95 or KN95. If you have a different, equally or more effective mask (such as one with a HEPA filter), it must be pre-approved at least 3 days prior to the dance. Contact bigsciotycontra@gmail.com to request preapproval. We will not approve alternate masks at the door the night of the dance. We will have masks available for purchase at the door.

Bring a lock – the center will allow us to leave locks on the lockers near the dance for the duration of the weekend and we are allowed to leave items in lockers overnight. Please lock up your valuables in either a locker or your car, as we share this space with other groups and Big Scioty cannot be responsible for possessions.
Bring items for the clothing exchange – bring any gently used dancing clothes and exchange for new-to-you items.
“Dress like a Snowflake” is on Sunday (optional!) – All dancers are invited to dress in their snowiest attire on Sunday! No special reason – just a local tradition that grew.
