ABOUT OUR PROGRAM


The National League of Junior Cotillions, with a copyrighted curriculum, is designed to give young people instruction and practice in the courtesies that make life more pleasant for them and those around them; to give them thorough training in dance basics; and to provide opportunities to practice and enjoy these skills at memorable balls, dinners and events, complete with decorations, refreshments, favors and prizes.
