Our current Learners are nearing the end of their class. Having started in January 2024 they will be graduating mainstream on 3 December 2024.
Progress during this class has been very pleasing. Congratulations and welcome to our graduates who are Terri, Veronica, Karen, Iris, Lynda, Ian. We also had some existing mainstream dancers learning the left hand dancer role who were Linda, Alison & Liz.
On 29 October we had our Halloween Night. Might be more than a coincidence but we finally had a theme which dancers warmed to. The amount of dancers in theme dress was by far the most we have had in recent times. Thank you to those who did dress to the theme (see picture below). All singing calls performed by Les (the Executioner) were themed. We were also very pleased to welcome some international visitors that night as well, Pat & Brian (second from right) from Queens and Jacks Square Dance Club, Calgary, Alberta Canada.
Congratulations to Les Tulloch who was elected as President of the SA Square Dance Society. Anne was also appointed as Secretary for a further 12 months.
Anne & Les travelled to Mt Gambier to help Pine City Twirlers celebrate their 41st birthday. Congratulations on an outstanding achievement and what a great weekend of dancing to the calling of Graham Elliott, Les Tulloch & Peter Humphries (Vic). Although it was not so great for Anne who ended up with a bug and had to spend the whole weekend in bed.
Then on the first night back after Mt Gambier (5 November) a nice surprise we had a visit from Stephen from Kerrly Q’s club in Canberra ACT. Turned out that Stephen comes from Adelaide, grew up in Christies Beach so knew exactly where to come.
The Club resumes dancing Tuesday 7 January 2025 for Mainstream, Thursday 9 January 2025 for Plus, Sunday 12 January for Rounds, see you then.
We would like to wish all of our dancers a joyous festive season and happy new year.
Happy Dancing from Anne & Les Tulloch
