Graham calling the journey across the USA
Hot dogs, donuts and apple pie
Ah – the best part!
Come on – let’s dance!
Looking good in red, white and blue
The happy crowd!
We celebrated our Annual American Night on July 1st with a red-white-blue themed dance and the crowd really enjoyed themselves.
We danced a musical journey through the States of the USA and enjoyed a bountiful supper of mini hot dogs, donuts and apple pies.
Thanks everyone for joining us on that night – even if it was in actual fact Canada Day!! A fact Roger and Anne were quick to point out!

The dancing program for the Adelaide Outlaws came to a close for 2012 with the Plus group break up night. Thanks everyone for your support and it was a fun night to see out the year. This photo reflecting the dedication to – well – food!
Merry Xmas everyone.
What a great way to finish up 2012! We put on a catered roast dinner and then ran a night of square dancing alternating levels for our Mainstream dancers and learners. There was a great crowd and really happy atmosphere. Thanks to Les Tulloch for dropping in and giving us a call and a couple of Rounds.
Looking forward to another year of fun at the Ouitlaws – we open again on Jan 14th at 8pm at learners level (but everyone’s invited) then on the 21st with learners at 7pm then MS at 8pm.
Have a great Xmas and New Year everyone – thanks for all your support.
It was a very special night as we celebrated the Club’s 27th Birthday. The theme was “Cabaret” and the hall looked oh so classy! Lights, props and costumes!! Great turnout and a lot of people took to the theme either in Cabaret style or red and black colour schemes. Combine that with good music and a supper fit to feed any Cabaret army and you have a wonderful night.
Matthew Mills from Bundaberg in Queensland was our feature caller. He did a really nice job and really entered into the theme with his music and style.
During the night we presented 10 year membership awards to Helen Hahn and Graeme Zilm and a 20 year (gold) membership to Pamela Thompson. Others receiving the awards who couldn’t make it were Brian Gill (10 years) and Sid and Pauline Dowden (20 years).
One highlight of the night was a moment on stage when young Emily Reid, daughter of Clare and James Reid (now in Qld) delivered a speech on behalf of Mum and Dad who couldn’t be there. Dressed in her cabaret outfit she had the crowd transfixed – beautiful!
Thanks also to Jeff Seidel & Les Tulloch for their calling and Les and Thelma McCue for the cueing – all added to a memorable evening.
Here’s a couple of videos of Matt in action on the night…
