Multiple Naptown Stomp members attended CincySwing's Smorgasbord Of Swing, a full day of dance instruction, open dancing and contests. Seven hours of dance instruction was offered, with classes that covered Lindy Hop basics, Charleston, aerial techniques and many others.
This event was very well attended. Naptown Stomp members met lots of dancers from southern Ohio and northern Kentucky.
A Jack & Jill contest was held that night at the open dance, with one of Naptown's Lindy Hop instructors, J, taking 3rd place out of approximately 15 competitors!
