PORT ANGELES — Peninsula College and the Port Angeles Senior & Community Center are teaming up for the 19th straight year to host the Senior Citizens’ Dance at Peninsula College on Tuesday.
The dance, which alternates annually between the senior center and the college Pirate Union Building on the Port Angeles campus at 1502 E. Lauridsen Blvd., will begin at 7:30 p.m.
Free admission
Admission will be free and light refreshments served.
Wally’s Boys will perform.
“PC’s student leaders from the 1997-98 school year started this annual event,” said Rick Ross, associate dean for athletics and student life.
“It’s a great opportunity for people from different generations to come together and share the timeless activity of dance.”
It’s common for the area’s senior citizens to teach the college students ballroom, swing and polka dancing, as well as other dance steps, Ross said.
“Every year, my students are a bit nervous about it because most of them don’t know ballroom dance steps,” Ross said, “but every year, they have a great time.”
The event is open to college students and community members of all ages.
