We're so sad to have had to cancel the St Johnsbury Community Contra Dance that was scheduled for tomorrow! But with the winter storm warning showing a 100% probability of heavy snow starting right at 4pm, we're confident it was the right call! We hope to see you next month!

According to the official CDC* website, the best thing you can for your mental and physical health on a cold snowy day is to go contra dancing. I for one always follow CDC* guidance.

*Lost & Found alert*
We have two VERY nice items that were left at St. Andrew's after our dance in October -- a jacket and a drink container. Come see me (Anne) at the next dance, let me know what you lost, and I will turn them over to you!
