Last season’s Puttin’ on the Ritz dance held in March was terrific. This dance had our inaugural champagne and hor dourves pre-party, the debut of the Lyn Jackson Ensemble and the first and only presentation of the Cotillion All Girls Chorus Line). The ladies featured in the Chorus Line photo from left to right are Sheila Petriello, Ann Livingston, Lylla Alejandro, Robbie Teifert, Denise Vickers, Cherie Greenough, Patricia Wolfe and Joann Craig. In addition to their coordinated stage dancing expertise, these ladies made use of their tux clad dates to show us some splendid ballroom dancing as well!
The 2016/2017 season starts in October. Our dance schedule for next season will be Saturdays beginning at 5:45 p.m. in the Oakwood Ballroom on October 8, November 5, January 14, 2017, February 4, 2017, March 11, 2017 and April 8, 2017. The dance themes and menus for next season have been finalized. Planned group dance lessons have been scheduled for 10:00 a.m.-noon in the Oakwood Ballroom on the Thursday or Friday before each dance. Check the website event calendar for details. The annual newsletter will be mailed out to members in August.
The revised version of our website is now available for use. The website has been simplified. Please let us know what you think of it. Continued use of website features by the membership and prospects greatly reduce the effort required by the club to provide a consistent high quality and efficient experience.
There are three areas of service still understaffed for this coming season. Tasks include club secretary, band selections (for 2017/2018 season) and dance photographer.
Members are encouraged to send in their annual dues. Resident member dues are $80 and late fee may apply.
