RIP Swing Dancing in Disneyland?

[lindyhop]

The Carnation Plaza Gardens area is closing down on 4/30 for the Fantasy Faire renovation. Saturday dancing is moving to Downtown Disney (the stage near ESPN Zone) but apparently the bands are only booked through June and there are no plans to bring dancing back into the Park. This is not the only place I dance. In fact, it's not the best place to dance in my opinion because there are so many couples and groups of people who stay with their friends so sometimes I spend more time watching than dancing. But it's where I got started dancing so it's a special place to me and a lot of other people.

Disney will do whatever they're going to do but I wanted to pass along a couple of things. First there's a petition. Second there are plans for April 28, the last Saturday in April to get as many people as possible there for the final night. I haven't decided if I'm going that night (there's a better band in Pasadena) but if it looks like it will be a big deal I might need to be there too.

Is anyone interested in a Memorial Swing Out LoT Meet?
