Who We Are:

The Northeast Social Dance Club is a not-for-profit dance club that was founded
on a warm summer night in 2005 by a small group of friends who come from diverse
backgrounds and various ages but have one common bond......the love for music,
dancing, and giving. With that in mind the first dance was held in August 2005
and it was evident that our goals were shared by many. Our dances are usually
scheduled on the First Saturday of the month and occasionally there are two dances
in one month. We sponsor benefit dances for people less fortunate than us. We are
proud of our club and its members for their willingness to share friends and friendship.
This has made NESDCs dances social events with a legacy that will be remembered
not only for its generosity, but as a place where friends have fun and in some way helped
others have a better day.

"Life may not always be a party...but while we're here, we might as well dance...."
