The OSU Country Western Dance Club is open to anybody interested in country western dancing. All OSU and non-OSU community members are welcome to join, however you must be an OSU student and meet university guidelines to be an officer.
The club sponsors country dances on campus and also holds special events for club members and in the past has had events like BBQ's, pizza feeds, beach trips, dance workshops, and any other event we can get together and have some fun.
We are a diverse group of many different majors, some always wear boots and buckles, but many don't even own them. If you want to meet new people and have some fun, consider joining.
The club usually holds three dances during each fall, winter, and spring term in the Memorial Union Ballroom or the Women's Building on the OSU campus in Corvallis. The MU Ballroom floor is one of the biggest and best wooden dance floors in Oregon and you can comfortably dance even with several hundred of your closest friends out there at the same time. Almost 4800 sq. ft. of dance floor.
The dances are open to all who want to attend. No age requirements or OSU affiliation required. Depending on the dance some have a cover which goes to the club for equipment and cost of rentals
Music is supplied by the CWDC and it's member's music collections. We aim to provide a fun, smoke and alcohol free environment for people who just want to have a great time dancing. We hold monthly meetings on campus and if you would like to become a member, feel free to just show up at one and introduce yourself. You don't even have to know how to dance, but the desire to learn doesn't hurt. If you hang out with us long enough, we guarantee you will learn something. If you would like any more information about the club, use the contact page to send us an email.
We hope to see y'all soon.
