SOS – The Society of Stranders
Calendar of Events http://www.shagdance.com/calendar.htm
The heart of any SOS event is the nightlife in the lounges at the intersection of Main Street and Ocean Drive in North Myrtle Beach. However, you can't afford to miss the two monster events held right out in the sparkling sun of the crystal coast. You need to mark your calendar & plan to be on hand for both SOS Fun Sunday & Fun Monday!
