BASICS: MASKS ARE REQUIRED IF YOU ARE NOT VACCINATED: The venue owner will be checking vaccine cards at the front door of the venue. If you are vaccinated you do not have to wear a mask but you still may choose to do so - many still do.

We are in between Hooters and Olive Garden on the service road off of Butterfield Rd. in Downers Grove. We're across the street from Best Buy. The dance is in the side room. Go to the back and go through the double doors on the left. The Sand Club has great food and drinks, pool tables, a beer garden and pretty much anything you could want. It's a laid back and wonderful environment. MORE ABOUT SWINGING AT THE SANDS Check out photos and shenanigans on the group Facebook page: [hidden] or at [hidden] More Info below.
