Spooky Halloween Subcrawl - update/need?
For Halloween, our members got out their fake blood and scary costumes to join us on a spooky subcrawl through Glasgow. A special treat from us: everyone in fancy dress was rewarded with a free subway ticket! The night was a blast with stops along our way including Munros (St Georges Cross), Bloc+ (Cowcaddens), Tingle (St Enoch), Record Factory (Kelvinhall), and Vodka Wodka! (Hillhead). Everyone had a lot of fun, even though not everyone made it to all the stops.

Welcome Back Social - need?
On Friday 2nd October we hosted our first social of the year to welcome back all of our old and new members to the new academic year and celebrate the first week of classes. The event was held in our newly affiliated bar 'Bank Street Bar & Kitchen'. Members had the change to kick back and relax over a drink or two and catch up with all the summer ballroom shenanigans! Aside from being an excellent way to end the week, the event was a good chance for our members to meet each other and mark another upcoming year of GUBDS. Who wouldn't drink to that?

Taster Session - update
The Taster Session that followed the Freshers Fair was a roaring success and one of the biggest turn outs GUBDS has had! We welcomed 54 keen and excited dancers to try out a class with us. Led by our wonderful Team Captain Julia and Teaching Coordinator Tom it was a great session teaching basic Cha Cha and Waltz! The attendees did very well- true ballroom dancers in the making. Thank you to all who attended!
