This new format is a way for RSCDS members to know what is going on in the worldwide Scottish Country Dance community, and be aware of the fact that we are truly a global organisation!
Branches from around the world sent in details of their events and we are happy to include them in the first Branch News & Updates Newsletter. We are still looking for material though so please send in details of your event, class, Branch, etc. and they will be included in the Newsletter. In order to properly represent all of our global Branches, the dissemination of Branch events is based on a schedule that can be found by visiting our website. If you have any feedback on the Newsletter schedule, Branch events included in this Newsletter, or would like to submit your event for the Newsletter, please email Michael Greenwood. Happy dancing!
