Welcome to the HCD Webpage!

HCD sponsors contra, Cajun/zydeco, swing, and waltz dances in the Hartford, CT area.

HCD dances are smoke and alcohol free.  Beginners are more than welcome.  You don't need a partner - Come alone or bring a friend.

Click here for HCD's Spring 2010 flyer (pdf format).  It's set up for legal-sized paper, so you'll get some extra pages if you print on letter-sized paper.
