Come to Our Dance in September!
Friends of Gilpin County Community Center is hosting a dance/fundraiser at the Gilpin County Community Center on September 28, 2024. We’re crowdfunding the purchase of an on-demand fitness system that can be used by individuals and groups.
The theme of the dance is “We’re Still Dancing!” and features music and dance from the Roaring 20s to the 2020s. It’ll be a family affair, complete with food and other refreshments.
As part of the festivities, we hope to have dance professionals demonstrate dances through the decades. There’ll be a costume contest and prizes for the best outfit from each decade. So, indulge (if you like) by wearing your best flapper, boot scooter, line dancer, Big Band, 60s, disco, or other outfits! Come celebrate the end of summer and the beginning of autumn with a fun dance! We’ll give everybody a chance to show off their best steps—from the Charleston and foxtrot to line dancing, hip-hop, and whatever else gets you on your toes! We’ll also have activities for little ones!

Help Us Help the Community Center
This will be a public fundraiser to help our group purchase an on-demand fitness system for the center. It will help the staff offer more activities for both groups and individuals. This is in line with our support of the Center across a wide variety of activities and events. If you’d like to see what we’ve done since our founding, please check out our Three-Year Report here.
Proceeds will go first to the fitness system, with additional funds placed in our Heart of the Community Fund. That special pot of money is there to help Gilpinites who need a little financial help to gain access to the Center and its activities. Over the past two years, we’ve helped a number of Gilpin neighbors afford to use the Center for exercise, to take classes, and participate in activities.
