Donate now! Become a proud member of The Sundance Association for Country-Western Dancing! Contributions from individuals like you are essential to the The Sundance Association. Admission fees to Sundance Saloon do not cover all our operating costs, which include not only rent and other production costs, but also advertising, administrative costs, support of other community projects, and more. In fact, over 50% of our revenue derives from donations. Your membership helps us to meet our expenses and continue our work, while keeping our public entrance fees affordable for everyone.
As a member you receive some tangible benefits, such as regular newsletters and invitations to member meetings to keep you informed about the Association, free passes to Sundance Saloon, discounts to certain Sundance-sponsored activities, and the like. And your membership fees are tax-deductible to the extent allowed by law. But the primary reason to become a member is simply the knowledge that you are contributing to the future of country-western dancing in the Bay Area.
100% of your donation will be put to work. As a nonprofit organization, The Sundance Association benefits the community rather than the individual, and all "profits" are channeled back into our projects. We are very proud of the fact that our administrative expenses are held at less than 10% of our total expenses. Show that you care about keeping country-western dancing alive and well in the Bay Area – become a member today!

Many More Ways To Contribute
There are many ways to give in addition to memberships, and not all of them involve monetary contributions.
• Come on down! Support us just by showing up.
• Introduce someone new to Sundance Saloon.
• Social media! Like and follow us on Facebook. Share our posts. Share your own posts. Review us on Google, Yelp, Facebook, and Tripadvisor.
• Use our coat-check on Sundays. That keeps our club neat and keeps your coat clean and secure – and it’s an easy way to help our bottom line.
• Put a dollar or two in the tip jar or donation box at the front entrance or the coat-check
• Become a member of the Sundance Association if you are not already.
• If you are already a member, consider a small extra donation.
• See if your company offers matching donations or grants for volunteer time served.
• Remember Sundance in your estate planning.
• Volunteer. Another important way of giving, and we can really use the help.
• Encourage beverage sales at Sundance Saloon, especially on Thursdays.
• If you shop on Amazon, use their parallel Amazon Smile site instead. Same products and same prices, but 0.5% of your purchase price is donated to Sundance (or any charity you like). Try it!
