REMARKS: The Spanish Ballroom is a superb dance venue. Built in 1933 and restored in 2003, the art deco style ballroom has a wonderfully bouncy, 7500 SF maple floor which can handle 6 lines of contradancers.

This was the first dance after the break -- six lines of dancers before and five after the break.
