The Stompede is not just about dancing. It's about making connections. Enjoy some of our social events, where you'll find it easy to make new friends and catch up with old ones.

VIP WELCOME RECEPTION
FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 7 • 6:00 pm – 7:30 pm

A special party to honor all those who have contributed to the creation of the Sundance Stompede including our host sponsors, business sponsors, volunteers, instructors, entertainers, and exhibition dancers.

FRIDAY NIGHT AFTER-HOURS PARTY
SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 8 • 1:00 am – 3:00 am

The dancing's ended, but it's not time to go to bed. Come to the after-hours party at the Stompede Hospitality Suite at the host hotel. The theme for Friday night's party is "Boots, Bras & Briefs," hosted by Southern Country Chattanooga.

SPECIAL FILM PRESENTATION:
"OUT ON THE DANCE FLOOR"
SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 8 • 3:45 pm – 5:15 pm

Anthony Palombit's extremely personal look at the healing and celebratory power of gay "country culture" as practiced at San Francisco's favorite dance hall, Sundance Saloon. Eight club regulars join Anthony on a spiritual journey exploring how gay men heal, while Anthony reports from the Sundance Saloon on everything from the politics and the aesthetics of leading versus following, finding and losing spouses on the dance floor, and gay line dancing as a subversive act.

WOMEN’S SOCIAL
SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 8 • 4:00 pm – 5:30 pm

A perennial favorite, our casual gathering of women Stompeders and their friends. We've sandwiched this between lessons and the IAGLCWDC General Membership Meeting to conflict with as few other events as possible.

IAGLCWDC GENERAL MEMBERSHIP MEETING
SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 8 • 5:30 – 7:30 pm

All Stompede attendees are invited to the General Membership Meeting of the IAGLCWDC, where official business of the IAGLCWDC is conducted ... but it's really mostly another opportunity for convention attendees to socialize with each other, to thank the contributors and sponsors of the weekend, to bring together our international community, and to eat pizza.

SATURDAY NIGHT AFTER-HOURS PARTY
SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 9 • 1:00 am – 3:00 am

Will it be wild or mild? Come to the after-hours party at the Stompede Hospitality Suite at the host hotel and find out! The theme for Saturday night's party is "Stars & Stripes," hosted by the Capital Country Dance Club.
