The Mavericks Welcome You to Canada's Oldest Continually Dancing Square Dance Club!

Welcome to our website and to our club! Although we are currently on hold due to COVID-19, the Mavericks have been dancing as a club since 1952. We offer Mainstream square dancing, some Plus square dancing, and Phase 2 Rounds. We dance on the first and third Fridays of each month from September to May at the Royal Oak Hall on West Saanich Road (Find Us) with Plus at 7:30 pm and Mainstream and Rounds from 8 through 10 pm.

For the 2020–2021 dance season, our caller couple is Marilynne and Alan Cunningham. Marilynne and Alan are based on Salt Spring Island and have many years of calling and queing experience.

Explore our website and find out more about us, and then come and visit us. You will find us welcoming to both singles and couples.

One remark we often hear about our club: You made us feel so welcome! Please come and join us in a square or for a round!

Frances, Mavericks President​

Current Status

Hello fellow square and round dancers,

The Mavericks hope you are all safe and well !!!

Although we are not currently dancing due to COVID-19, many people from the local to national level are working on ways to get us back (as soon as is possible) on the dance floor so we can be healthy, happy, and have fun together!!!

Best wishes,

Michael, Webmaster

Mavericks Photography Policy

  • ​No flash photography!
  • All photographs and videos of people are by explicit agreement with a photographer:
    • If you would like your photo taken, either individually or in a group, talk to the photographer about having it taken in the designated area.
    • If a full square of dancers want action shots, pre-arrange to have them taken at the back of the hall so other dancers aren’t included by accident.​​​
