About Club Country:
Club Country meets every Friday at the Riverside Community Center on the banks of the Caloosahatchee River, except for Christmas and New Years (or a hurricane!). There is always a lesson at 7PM. Instructors introduce either a partner dance or line dance. The lessons are often followed by a review of a lesson that was taught recently. Most instruction is given by Club members.

There is "open dancing" until 10PM. Club members take turns DJing. 

Annual membership dues are $10 per person, due at the beginning of the fiscal year, June 1.  In addition, members pay $2 to attend each dance. Non-members are encouraged to attend and they pay $4 for the evening.

Please Note: Bottled water and soda are available for sale.  You may bring your own snacks and non-alcoholic beverages if you wish.  (No alcohol is allowed in the Community Center.)

Club History:
The original club was started on March 3, 1989 and was called the FCWDA (Florida Country Western Dance Association). Pam & Gary Sheffield were the originators and the first presidents. Dances were held at the Hall of 50 States in downtown Ft. Myers. The dances were held there until January 2002 when FCWDA moved out to Riverside Community Center.

The members all loved it at Riverside Community Center and decided to stay. (Both facilities are owned by the City of  Ft Myers.)

The original FCWDA grew to over 250 members.

In May of 1998, the Association was reformed to become Club Country.
