Glen Echo Park


To motivate myself to start the dreadful process of packing and moving, I’ll be listing a few reasons I’m looking forwarded to relocating. The number one reason is to live with Aaron again. Living separately is nooo fun. Here’s my next reason: the social dances at Glen Echo Park. I had a friend-roommate in college who raved about how fun they were and I’ve always wanted to go. These dances are done with old school charm. Some take place in an old Spanish ballroom, others are outside on an old bumper car ring. The dances happen every weekend and often feature a live band. An hour before the actual dance starts, they teach the steps so even uncultured beginners like me can join in the fun. You can see the calendar here. I already extracted a promise from Aaron to take me to a swing dance. I guess I’ll need to consult with Abby, the latest cotillion graduate, to brush up my manners.
