WSDS Weekly 11/3/11

Hello dancers! 

 

Thank you to everyone who made the Halloween Party a great event.  Hopefully, pictures of the party will be posted on Facebook within the next couple of weeks.  Don't forget it is Dance Card Sunday.

 

We are proud sponsors of the Central Prairie Honor Flight.  We are losing an estimated 1,600 World War II veterans a day. The "Honor Flights" Volunteers help WW2 Vets see the memorial in Washington D.C. On November 12th Jabara Airport will host a dinner/dance fundraiser. The Swing Dance Contest has cash prizes of $500.  Flyers for CPHF and Dance Contest are at the front table. 

 

November 13^th is our annual Sock Hop. To help us celebrate in style we have the Dance Man Ronnie Choy.  Dust off your poodle skirt and bobby socks for this wicked cool event.
