* Social! *
We are planning on having a Ceilidhsoc Social on
Thursday 3rd March (apologies for the short notice but
the email system has been very confused of late). The
plan is a non-session based social meet up that anyone
can attend (no need to play instruments or anything!).
We'll be meeting in Bar 1 (Sheffield Students Union) at
8.30 on Thursday. We'll try and be near the bar and
there will be people wearing Ceilidhsoc T-shirts so
you'll be able to spot us. The plan is to do a bit of
a pub crawl, possibly ending up in Fuzz Club.
Non-students are welcome but will need to be signed
into the union; if you're in this position give Ceri a
ring on 07754 522235.
Come along it'll be a laugh!
* AGM *
Do you want to get more involved in the running of
ceilidhsoc? All roles on the current committee will be
up for grabs at the annual AGM which is being held on
Tuesday 15th March in the Council Chanmbers. The AGM
is open to all ceilidhsoc members and gives YOU a real
chance to get involved in running YOUR society (it
also looks pretty good on you're CV). Please speak to
anyone on the committee if you're interested and want
to find out more about what is involved. The current
ceilidhsoc committee and their roles can be found
here:

* 3rd Sheffield contra *
Contra combines the familiar figures of ceilidh or
barn dancing in smooth, flowing sequences with the
improvisational element of Swing to produce an
energetic, fun, social dance form that's easy to
learn.

to choose from. Each dance is first taught by the
caller and then called continuously as it is danced.

contra Workshop at 8pm, dance proper starts at 9.
