Chattanooga Traditional Dance Society celebrates its 20th Anniversary Saturday with a potluck dinner from 5:30-7 p.m. and contra dance from 7:30-11 p.m., featuring calling by Janet Shepherd and music by Contraplicity. 

CTDS dances are held at Brainerd United Methodist Church, Lundy Hall at 4315 Brainerd Road. Admission is $8; $5 for students and seniors. 

Everyone is invited to join the welcoming, family-friendly community and enjoy this lively, traditional social dance, said officials. No need to bring a partner. All dances are taught in walk-throughs. Toe-tapping live music makes even sitting out enjoyable. Contra dancing is fun, aerobic exercise.  Wear comfortable, loose-fitting clothes and bring a separate pair of clean, soft-soled shoes for dancing. Hard-soled boots or shoes are not allowed on the dance floor. 

There is a Contra Basics lesson for newcomers at 7:30 p.m.
