Indianapolis Traditional Music and Dance Group (ITMDG or Indy Contra) is a 501(c)(3) charitable organization, sponsoring traditional American music and dance, primarily contras. (Bylaws here.)
ITMDG dues of $15/year bring benefits like these: save $1 on each weekly admission, vote in elections, etc. For those 25 & under, we offer a discounted $7/year membership, with voting, other benefits, but no weekly discount.
Memberships are 12 months from whenever you join, not by calendar year.
Please fill out the membership form & bring it to the dance, or mail it with a check made to ITMDG.
We can’t give tax advice, but have read, among other things, IRS Publication 526, to learn about certain membership benefits.
We also welcome participation:
- On Facebook
- On MySpace
- On Twitter
- On Picassa for pictures
- On Flickr for more pictures
- Get our Google calendar and add its events to yours.
- Join one of two Email groups:
- indycontra@googlegroups.com is for regulars/locals. Members can post about dances, rides, lost & found, travel alerts, invitations to non-dance events, & other conversations and community building, so it may get a couple messages per week. You must post from the email address that gets its mailings.
- indycontra-announcements@googlegroups.com is for people who only want a handful of messages each year, announcing our weekend dances, quarterly schedule, and other events. Only IndyContra administrators can post messages.
- To get signed up for either, please email indycontra@gmail.com, saying whether you want to be on discussion or announcements, or both.
