Midwest Country Dance Party

07/23/2026

Midwest Country Dance Party is on Hiatus for 2026. MCDP is a part of Dance With Janet & Dance Shoes of Tennessee, both of which are run by Janet Kruse (that's me). As you may or may not know, I moved from the Chicago, Illinois area to Louisville, Kentucky in January 2026 to help care for my granddaughter. I'm also hosting TWO DWJ cruises in 2026. Those three major things made it too stressful to host an event as well for this year. MCDP is slated to return in the fall of 2027, again in Crystal Lake, Illinois. Stay tuned for details!
