    details: "<span>For the class from 7:30-8:30, H</span>arry and Pat will teach a fun and elegant dance that can be done to waltz music. Stigvals gives you another option when a slow-to-medium-speed waltz is played. The pattern is simple, with both a CW and CCW (bakmes) turn, but it takes practice to get used to. See:  <font><u><a href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Djb-eW95kW0\" target=\"_blank\">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Djb-eW95kW0</a></u></font>.<p>The music for the evening will be provided by the well-known MetroGnomes! These musicians, coached by the magical little people of the Northern European countries, will bring you spirited tunes for your dancing pleasure. Their magic will make your toes tap, and keep you up and on the dance floor all evening. <span><b> <br></b></span></p><br><span><b>Skandia members, $10; nonmembers, $15; kids, free  The price of admission includes a free dance class.</b></span>"
