REMARKS: The Spanish Ballroom is a superb dance venue. Built in 1933 and restored in 2003, the art deco style ballroom has a wonderful 7,700 SF sprung maple floor which can handle 6 lines of contradancers.

This was the third dance after the break -- five lines of dancers before and four after the break.
