  • Lindy in the Park is cancelled for Sunday, May 15, 2011 due to Bay to Breakers

    Hi Everyone,

    Due to the Bay to Breakers race, which runs along JFK Drive next to our dance area, we have decided to cancel Lindy in the Park for Sunday, May 15, 2011.

    Lindy in the Park will return the following Sunday, May 22, at its usual time (11:00AM-2:00PM) and location (weather permitting, of course) and resume its normal weekly schedule.

  • Yes, Lindy in the Park is happening Easter Sunday, April 24, 2011! (weather permitting)

    In case you’re wondering, and apparently many of you are, yes, we are planning to have Lindy in the Park this Sunday, Easter Sunday, April 24, 2011 (weather permitting).  Lindy in the Park is a year-round event, happening every Sunday, even on most holidays and holiday weekends, including Easter!

    The weather forecast says there’s a chance of rain, so if you have any doubts about the weather, check this web site.  If we cancel, we’ll post an announcement by 10:00am Sunday morning (If there’s no cancellation announcement by 10:00am, you can assume LitP is on).  Of course, if it start raining after Lindy in the Park has started, we may need to quit early.

    But as of now, Lindy in the Park is on, so practice your Bunny Hop!

    Hop to see you at the park,
    Ken

    Hi Everyone,

    This Sunday, March 27, for only the second time in our 14-year history, a live band will play at Lindy in the Park! (weather permitting) Our very own swing dancer James Thornton heads up the Bay Area Swing All Stars who will play a set of classic swing numbers from 1:30-2:00 PM.

    The 8-piece band includes James on trombone, another swing dancer, Tom Murray, on guitar, plus a second guitar, stand-up bass, tenor sax, baritone sax, and two trumpets.
