Parking
Alert:
To alleviate the parking crunch around the
Glenside Memorial Hall and adjacent facilities, Cheltenham
Township is directing all users of the Hall (that's
us) to park in the Glenside Library lot, which is
just across the intersection from the Hall. It is
also OK to park along Waverly St. across from the
Hall. The Township asks that we not park along either
side of Keswick Ave. so that those spaces can be
used by residents and users of the adjacent recreation
facilities. See
Map
To maintain good relations with our neighbors and the Township (which
is kind enough to rent the Hall to us), and to help insure our continued
use of the Hall, the Dance Committee urges all dancers to cooperate.
Thursday Night Dance Committee
SPUDS
SPUDS is open to
all musicians who wish to participate, and has musicians of
different levels of ability among its members. Since it is
a Contradance band, the tunes range from reels to jigs and
waltzes. We play for the Thursday night dance about seven times
a year and occasionally for other events. For more information
on how you can take part, including jams and rehearsals, visit
the SPUDS website or
contact
