All dancers are welcome to support this scholarship. Although our next raffle is currently not scheduled, the Fairs 'n Squares also accepts tax deductible donations to the scholarship fund.

The Fairs 'n Squares now offers hearing assist equipment for use at classes and dances. This equipment helps those with hearing problems to hear our caller more clearly and decreases the impact of other noise in the room. We have several ear pieces available for your use.
