Hello dancers,



We feel exhausted but super happy and motivated after this successful and
inspiring 3rd Quattropole Exchange! Keep an eye on facebook, many pictures
and memories are shared by those who were there! Follow the #qsx3 hashtag
and share the joy! It was a very special event, also because it saw the
debut of our very own Duke Box band

*Swing events in Quattropole Region*



-       Did you miss the amazing 3rd QUATTROPOLE EXCHANGE? Do you want to

learned? You can!

Go to Saarbrücken on Sunday 3rd June. There is a little workshop to learn
this fun dance, no partner needed! After the class, there will be a tea
dance with lots of nice cake and even nicer dancers! Registrations and info
here <https://www.nikandjovanna.com/workshop-wochenenden.html>.





- We have been invited to a special event organized by the Grande
Région/Grossregion and the four Quattropole cities. They have organized a
full day of activities for *JULY 4th at Europa-Park* and they have invited
the Quattropole Swing dancers to animate the day. What they need: dancers
from all the scenes to come and dance the Quattropole Routine a few times
per day.
What they offer in exchange:

1) A free entrance to all participants so when you are not dancing, you can
enjoy the Park!
2) Free transportation to and from the Park!

We know it’s a Wednesday so you might need to take a day off to
participate. But if you feel like spending a summer day dancing and having
fun with our Quattropolis as well as sharing this dance with new people. If
you want to come please drop us a line! We have limited spots.

Last Saturday was the birthday of a very special man: *Frankie Manning*. We
owe so much to this man. So much that the world now celebrate *The World
Lindy Hop Day* on his birthday.
