The Independence Squares held their first fall open-house dance party Sept. 1 to welcome new square dancers. At least 30 returning members and a dozen new faces did a few dosidos, promenades and swinging of their partners for a couple of hours and had a great time. The Independence Squares won the Best Performing Theme at the 2009 Philadelphia Gay Pride Parade and have additional open-house gatherings at 2111 Sansom St. on Tuesdays through Sept. 22.
