Updates

On Sept 14, 2023, the Board of Directors set the new 2024 Club Dues at $25.00 per person. This is $3.00 lower than last year, and it reflects the success of our Club attracting so many great members. Our friendly atmosphere, solid Plus dancing and having great Callers and Cuers available keeps us successful. Our Club and Member Insurance is provided by United Square Dancers Association.

Announcements

MEMBERSHIP...WHY?

The life blood of any social club is its members and the necessary dues that keep us going. The door entry fees help pay for the facility and our caller and cuer in most cases, but our advertising, refreshment and operating budgets are covered by dues and donations.

Please renew your membership when dues become payable, and if you are not a member, please consider joining Mesa Checkmates to help keep Plus level square dancing available to all of us. Becoming a member has financial benefits for dancers as well as the club, and it by no means requires you to volunteer or “be volunteered” into a club position. We love the help, but it is YOUR choice not ours. No pressure, just have fun dancing with old and new friends.
