THE SPA CONNECTION

Spa City Bop and Swing Dance Club

MARCH/APRIL 2010

DANCE CLUB LABOR IS A LABOR OF LOVE

THE WAGES OF A VOLUNTEER ARE PAID IN JOY, FRIENDSHIP & ACCOMPLISHMENT.

Hello Spa City Dancers,

Hang on, Spring is just around the corner. I think, by the number in attendance for our Country/Western Dance & Chili Supper, we were ready to get out of the house and dance off that ‘cabin fever’ brought on by our recent snowy and icy weather. What a great party it was, and wow, our cooks just keep getting better and better, right?? A big ‘thank you’ to all who provided the chili, there was variety in each crock pot, and each delicious in its’ own way. I heard rumors that we should have this type of dinner/dance more than once a year, so watch the web for upcoming events. You surely don’t want to miss another delicious dinner.

To avoid cost of printing and mailing our newsletter, please note that all club news is posted on our web site www.spacitydanceclub.com. We will also have copies on the admissions desk at each of our dances. Please post the monthly calendar in a place in your home where you will often be reminded of our dance nights and special events. And as always you may call any of our board members with questions or concerns you may have, regarding any of the dances. We always welcome new or different ideas to help our club grow and prosper.

As always, I am proud to be your Pres…

All we want to do is Dance … Dance …Dance!

Things to Remember:

"Spa City Bop and Swing Dance Club Members"

Ask someone new to dance, especially visitors and new members.

Count to 20 before "cutting in" during the Jam Session

Be considerate of other dancers around you, realizing where you are on the dance floor and watching for other dancers close to you.

Leave the perimeter of the dance floor for traveling dancers.

Ladies...ask those guys to dance!

Renew your membership on time.

Volunteer to help! And above all else...HAVE FUN!!!
