Scheduled Performances & Practices (2016)
Generally, the Alpine Dancers practice year-round, with a break during the performance season (which begins in September and runs until December). Practices are held at the Garland Elks Lodge (3825 Duck Creek Dr, Garland, TX 75043) and begin in early February on Tuesday evenings from 6:30pm for Kinder and 7:30pm for Adults. During the summer this year, we tried out a new schedule of practices — 1st and 3rd Tuesdays at the Elks Lodge and 2nd and 4th Sundays as Family Practices at 4:30pm — including a meal and fellowship.
