Pink Party & BBQ

The Pink Party and BBQ was a great success. Thank you everyone for coming along and making this a very enjoyable evening with Linedancers and Rock and Rollers kicking up their heels on our new dance floor under the stars. Thanks to Kaysan for the photos.








Sussex Inlet Social

Jenny has a social at Sussex Inlet RSL Club this coming weekend 17th June with a Friday night social to kick off the weekend, then Saturday after lunch a workshop with Julie Talbot, then the social on Saturday night. Alway is a great night of dancing, the dances are easy with a few hard ones to keep your brain active. There is always requests through out the program.
Come along & have a good time. We have quite a few ladies from my classes coming along, we will be having tea at the club before the social on Saturday night. You are more than welcome to join us.

Rock & Roll Long Weekend

This was another great weekend spent with Margret & Richard Pacitti over the June Long weekend at Port Macquarie. We had 2 days Thursday & Friday of good weather, then down it came Saturday,Sunday & Monday.
If you haven't been to a music festival your missing out. I have been to Tamworth for many years now, always have enjoyed the country music, but the Bands playing at Port Macquarie were Rockabilly & Swing music, so different it's terrific, can't wait for another time when I can get away to the music festival.
Didnt have a chance to do much dancing as the floor was packed & we don't know a lot of Rockabilly steps, but still enjoyed watching the different style of dancing

Canberra Weekend

28th May,
Started off with the Saturday workshop with Kate & Mark Simpkin, Tom Glover, teaching 6 dances(my head was spinning at the end of the 2 & 1/2  hour class).
Saturday Night Barry sure knows how to put a social together, with entertainment from Maddie Glover & Simon Ward, then Ben Summerill & his mate, Maddie & her friend, then Ben dancing with an Indian Lady in all their Indian outfits dancing to a very popular piece of Indian music. Loads of dancing (if you know the dances) Barry played a 15 minute bracket of 1 minute older dances that really gets your brain working, that was a lot of fun.
The night started at 7pm and went through to 12.30am, then we all went back to the units & talked until 2pm. I was up around 7am to leave by 8am to get back to the country club to run the class for 4 hours after a 3 hour drive, then stayed at the club for another 2 hours of rock & roll with Rob, then I was tired had to leave him at the club so I could get home to rest.
A great weekend, thanks Barry for a good night of social dancing.
