Modern_Jive_Party_Week_2008


SAME SEX ACCOMMODATION - A reminder that part of the agreement with the Baptist Church who run the venue for our Dance Camp 2008 is to adhere to the Baptist Church rules by accommodating un-married males and females in separate rooms. Married/De-facto couples and family members of the opposite sex can be accommodated in the same room.

This is fully explained in the Dance Camp pages but given that some of you have asked to share rooms with 'friends' who are not of the same sex, we thought we should remind you of the rules set down by the owners of the camp. Where possible we have accommodated friends in adjoining rooms.

Please contact us personally if this is a problem for you.
