Our Mission

The goal of Song Scout Saturday is to provide a fun environment to dance west coast swing.  We want to play the most fun music and provide the best conditions possible to have a good time with new and old friends.

Our History

The Song Scout Saturday dance was started April 5, 2003 by Paul Booth and Melinda Booth.  We are at our second venue, and our attendance continues to grow.
 
Word is quickly getting around that Song Scout Saturday is now "the place to be" for the ultimate weekly social swing dance experience! We play music that is FUN to dance to!
 
Paul and Melinda Booth began their West Coast Swing dance partnership in February 1995 at the Bellevue Club, and have shared wcs dancing intensively with the community for the past 10 years! Paul & Melinda dance for fun. We have day jobs (our residential remodeling company, Booth Construction). We hold a dance only because we WANT to. P&M have been married since 1972, and have two great kids.

This is a group of about 80 of the most dedicated DJs in swing around the world.  Every year we induct two DJs into the hall of Fame at Atlanta's convention in May, giving them "Wetzel Awards". Also annually we elect a "DJ of the Year",  which for 2004 goes to John Festa.
