Join the Second City Country Dance Association for a night of line dancing at Chicago's only country-western gay bar. Whether you're a seasoned dancer or stepping onto the floor for the first time, you'll find a welcoming crowd ready to two-step and line dance together. Grab a $5 domestic draft pitcher or $6 well cocktail, and know that $1 from every Jack Daniel's drink goes directly to support SCCDA—plus enjoy Apple Pie and Jell-O shots while you dance.
