(I believe this will be moving to a thrice-yearly event soon, because of low attendance, but here 'tis for now:)

>Hideous Will's Cotillion
> 10 March, '07
>As always, the dates are Saturdays, with the event running
>from 7:00 PM until midnight, and take place at:
>Goat Hall
>400 Missouri Street (at the corner of 19th Street)
>That's in San Francisco, doncha know.

>Hideous Will's Cotillion, for those not familiar with it,
>is an occasion for social morris dancing. It aims at
>creating a Saturday-night-at-the-ale pickup (or "scratch")
>dance scene without the circumstances of an ale. I
>commission a hall, put out the word, and the rest seems to
>take care of itself. All are welcome. There's no charge per
>se, though I will set out a gaping treasure chest for those
>who care to toss in a few bucks toward the hall rental.

>Cheers,
