DURHAM, NC – Put on your dancing shoes and help celebrate Durham Parks and Recreation’s (DPR) 100th year during this Centennial Line Dance Party as part of the DPR 100 celebration.

On Saturday, September 28, 2024, come out to the I.R. Holmes, Sr. Recreation Center Gymnasium at 2000 Alston Avenue from Noon to 3:00 PM to participate in this one-of-a-kind birthday celebration. The goal is to have 100 participants, ages 18 and up, line dancing for 200 minutes. No experience is required for this fun, full-body workout!

Line dance refers to a range of choreographed routines danced in a group without partners. 

“Line dancing is a vibrant and inclusive activity that caters to all skill levels,” said Edwina Steele, program coordinator at the I.R.
