Skirack's Run Club
Skirack's Run Club offers a relaxed, community-focused run every Monday for all paces and experience levels. The planned distance is roughly 3 to 5 miles, and participants are welcome to run any distance that feels right. Groups may split based on preferred pace so everyone can find a comfortable rhythm. Meet at Skirack's Run Center inside the store, and consider arriving a little early so the group can head out together. Parking is available in the back lot for the duration of the run.
SkirackBeginner Line Dancing Lessons
Better in Boots leads a lively, beginner-friendly line dancing session at the Senior Center in South Burlington. This six-week series introduces new routines each week at a comfortable pace. Steps are broken down clearly, practiced without music, then set to songs, and prior dances are reviewed to build confidence over time. Registration is handled through SB parks and recreation. If you would like to try a class or cannot commit to the full series, drop-ins are welcome for $10 cash per class at the door. The evening features simple warmups, guided instruction, and later an open dance period with all-request music. No experience is needed. Boots are not required, and any comfortable footwear is fine. Please bring a clean, dry pair of shoes to change into, since outside or wet shoes are not allowed on the dance floor. Bring water or another hydrating drink, and note that alcohol is not permitted. This is solo line dancing rather than a partner class. Those planning to bring children should review the organizer’s Facebook page for attendance details.

On Tap Bar & GrillOpus 40
Creativity from across the Green Mountains takes center stage as Music-COMP presents the OPUS 40 concert, highlighting brand-new pieces by student composers. Professional musicians will premiere 21 works by students in grades 4 through 12, marking more than three decades of composition education in Vermont. Over the past few months, 26 students worked one on one with composer mentors to shape and finalize their scores for combinations of strings, woodwinds, and piano, each piece reflecting the composer’s individual voice. The acclaimed chamber ensemble TURNmusic, led by Anne Decker, will perform the premieres. In preparation, the student composers rehearse with their performers and take part in workshops with special guest presenters, building toward this culminating performance at the Elley Long Music Center. Admission is free and open to the public, and Special Donor Seats can be reserved online.
