Half price Student Appreciation Night, October 1st
Students are you feeling unappreciated? Are your parents too happy that school has started up again and they can rent out your vacant room? Do your professors not appreciate how difficult starting or returning to school really is? Does the campus bully not appreciate just how hard you worked for your lunch money? Need a little appreciation in your life? Then.......Come to The Ottawa Swing Dance Society's *Student Appreciation Night on October 1st and let us show you how much we appreciate you. Not only is it a band night but if you show us a valid student ID you get in for half price. Thats half off the regular band night price of $10.00. So leave some money at home, because you're not going to need it, and join us for Student Appreciation Night. We really would appreciate it.
