Tell about the first dance you ever went to.

If my memory serves me correctly and usually it does(n't), I remember going to dances in Elementary school in the later grades. It was usually with a small piece of paper and ten names that we had to write down of girls that we would dance with and that was where we were first taught the square dance. Then in Junior High (or actually High School since 7th thru 12th grades were included) we continued by having special dances that were just for 7th -9th grades around the same time as the major dances for the high school only they were during the last two class periods of the school day. We were not allowed to go to the High School dances so that was how they appeased us. The only major dances that we had though were the Home Coming, Junior and Senior Proms. There were no girls choice dances. It was fun and we would have some less major dance after ball games on friday nights once in a while but even then they were very few. So to answer the question well I can't since I don't remember the first dance I ever went to. There were also dances that were put on by the church and they were even fewer.
