Another year gone and it will soon be September 2011 when we’ll be hoping for some new dancers.
If you are new to our site, or re-visiting, could you be one of them?
Our dancers are always very friendly and even if you come on your own you will
soon feel part of us and our dancers will ensure you’re not left sitting out.
Visitors from abroad.
This last year hasn’t seen us travelling abroad (although we might do yet in September)
but we have had some visitors to the club in the form
of Kenn and Tina from Texas and, no, that’s not a spelling mistake.
Tina, originally from England, has relatives nearby and so it was close for them to come and dance with us.
The other visitors from abroad were a Square Dance Caller, Doug MACHLIK and
Round Dance Cuer, Pavel HOSENSEIDL, both with their partners.
They were representing the Czech and Slovak Callers and Teachers Association
for a Friendship Exchange Dance with our Square Dance Callers Club of Great Britain.
A Caller and Cuer from the UK visited them a few years ago and started it off.
Dancing was arranged at Drayton for Saturday and Sunday, and, as they has arrived on Friday
it was easy for them to visit our occasional Friday night club which just happened to be on that Friday.
I guess there will be some further exchanges in the future.
I’ll be doing the usual car boot appearances for recruiting and last year
we attended our first event at Fun-in-the-Park at Abingdon.
This year it’s on Sunday, 11th September so we hope to be there.
If by any chance you read this prior to then you could come and speak to us personally
although by then we will have had one open evening (6th) and you could already have been there having a good time!
Don’t forget our national website www.uksquaredancing.com
It’s regularly updated and gives lots of information for potential dancers. There is also a list of clubs
who are recruiting this year so if you happen to be too far from us there may be another club nearer.
We are starting NEW DANCERS starting at 8pm
any Tuesday in September at Steventon Village Hall, OX13 6RR where we dance every week.
As I said earlier, “Could you be one of them?”
If you’ve read this far you really ought to try it.
All for now
