Ros & Stan 50th Wedding Anniversary



Well the socials just keep on coming, with 2 more for this month of August. Ros & Stan had a fantastic party over 2 nights to celebrate their 50th Wedding Anniversary in Canberra. We first arrived in Canberra about lunch time did a bit of retail therapy then went back to the motel to get settled and to get ready for the night ahead.

Friday night was a greet & meet and there must have been about 200 people there at least, with linedancers from different states including Queensland having Brett Jenkins visit us, Victoria had about 60 linedancers all in black & Yellow shirts especially made for Ros & Stan's Celebration and lots of linedancers from New South Wales. The whole night was requests only and we checked out numerous dances suitable for our class that looked like a lot of fun.

Saturday morning more retail therapy, so cheap and great stores, wish they would set up in Nowra(we have nothing here). Then off to the workshop with Gordon Elliott to learn some new dances, one was especially choregraphed for Ros & Stan it was a love song and a waltz, very nice. 3 other dances were taught, all suitable for class.

Back to the motel for a bit of R & R and a glass of wine or two, then get ready for the big night. When we arrived their must have been at least 300 people dancing to the great songs that we know so well. Stan put up a great dance program that catered for every level. We didn't know a lot of the dances but the challenge was there and we jumped onto the dance floor and followed who ever we could that knew the dances, hit and miss for some dances but most were fairly easy to follow. 

Thanks for a great weekend of fun Ros & Stan and happy 50th Wedding Anniversary. See you at the next social.
