seattle_dancer Posted May 29, 2013 Share Posted May 29, 2013 It was an awesome event. Very informative and totally awesome dancing, especially by Kyle and Price who we haven't seen featured much. Hopefully more to come. Doug, can we have this event every year? Link to comment
sandik Posted May 30, 2013 Author Share Posted May 30, 2013 Doug F, or one of his colleagues, generally does at least one substantial lec-dem during the year -- we are very, very lucky here. Link to comment
