About Us

YSDC Council Information

Our Council is an educational, non-profit organization for the promotion of Square Dancing, Round Dancing, and related folk dance instruction in the Eastern Montana - Northern Wyoming areas. Currently, we have two Square Dance Clubs, and one Round Dance Club located in the Billings area. All of the clubs dance from mid-September to mid-May.

The Yellowstone Square Dance Council got its start in 1952 when dancers and clubs had become so numerous in Billings that coordination and organization were needed.

YSDC clears dates for council and club sponsored square dances, establishes policy in the Billings area, promotes square dancing, and encourages square dance, round dance, and contra dance activities in the area.

A newsletter, the Grapevine, is published monthly and features articles from each club and upcoming events. In addition, a Facebook page has been created with up-to-date information on all of our dance activities. Look for the Facebook icon at the bottom of any page.

First Presbyterian Church

Two of the square dance clubs located in Billings now dance at First Presbyterian Church which is located at the corner of 13th Street W and Poly Drive. The dance area has a wood floor, kitchen, and air conditioning.
