Why not introc uce them to us?

New dancers are usually very enthusiastic about their new found hobby. They like to learn and read all they can that will help them enjoy their hobby more and make them good dancers faster. SQUARE DANCE Magazine is the national magazine that every new dancer should get to know as soon as possible. Here each month the newcomer will get concise but complete details on what's going on in the square and round dance field throughout the country. Then there are features and articles by nationally known callers and leaders that certainly every new dancer will en- joy. Yes, to help those new dancers become "old pros" there's nothing like reading as well as dancing . . . and there's no national square dance magazine quite like SQUARE DANCE. Why not give this copy to that new dancer. Tell him the sub- scription price is only $5.00 per year. We'll be glad to give him more details.

SQUARE DANCE Magazine 1622 N. Rand Rd., Arlington Heights, Ill. 60004 (312) 255-4060 • SQUARE DANCE Magazine is 23 years old!

SQUARE DANCE (formerly Amer- • ican Squares) has grown from a two page O mimeographed newsletter to a slick, top qual- ❑ ity publication that averages 24 times the O number of pages as in the beginning.

Here is an exciting new concept in recreational facilities . . . a modern square dance center . . . designed and built exclusively for square dancing. Imagine, a beautiful building perfect in every detail to help you enjoy your dancing more. A dance hall that has perfect acoustics so you can hear anywhere in the hall while dancing. A 5,000 square foot dance floor of hardwood that is mounted on rubber for ease on the feet. Tastefully decorated throughout with special decorations on festive occasions. Air conditioned for year around comfort. Free parking. Room for many, many cars in two private parking lots (overflow parking lot located directly across the street). Then there is a square dance store that's out of this world. You'll want to browse for hours on end. Here under one roof is everything a square dancer could want to have a wonderful time. Here is a place where there's round or square dancing practically every night of the week. PROGRAM MONDAYS - SQUARE DANCE AND WORKSHOP This is an evening devoted to people who have finished their lessons and who want to know more about the newer basics. You'll dance and have fun while you learn under the capable calling and instructing of top Chicago area callers.
