Past CCECD Dances

Here’s a list of our past CCECD dances (since January 2016), and the callers and bands scheduled for each.

Be sure to check out our list of Upcoming Dances. We hold dances on the second and fourth Sundays of every month, 2:30 to 5:30 p.m., at Lindberg Park Stone House (5041 Rhoda Way) in Culver City. Doors open at 2 p.m. We use a Sliding Scale/Pay What You Can model, with a suggested admission of $15. No partner or experience necessary; dress is casual (and the hall can get warm in summer), and please bring clean, soft-soled shoes to change into.
