Just some fun shots from our 41st State Convention. Dawn was asked to open the Convention because this was her 40th Convention. Also a shot here of Graham with the feature caller – Paul Long from WA. A little joke re the football game on at the same time – West Coast Eagles (WA) vs Crows (SA). Paul decked Graham out in the Eagles colours!

Sixteen good timing Outlaws dancers with Graham and Dawn journeyed 4hrs to the State’s south east to join Acey Squares at their 10th Birthday celebration. Their feature caller was Brian Hotchkies and the event was a Friday night, Sat afternoon & night and Sunday breakfast affair. We thoroughly enjoyed our club outing and the constant rain could do little to dampen our enthusiasm. Congratulations to Chris and Alan Hall on their club’s 10th and we look forward to seeing you again at a dance.

2016 August 15th – Tribute to Pamela

What a lovely tribute! So many people came along to pay respects to one of our long term members Pamela Thomson. Pamela sadly passed away on the morning of this function and whilst a dance was planned to celebrate her 25 years of dancing with us, it became a tribute dance.
Well over one hundred people came from many clubs – square and round dance. This was a real testament to how many people she had made friends with.
Her daughter Nola had put a lot of work into catering and planning the event and juggled this with caring for her mother in the last few weeks. We can only imagine how difficult this was and yet, the big crowd would have been some consolation.
Thanks to Thelma McCue for cueing and Jeff and Ian for calling in honour of Pam.
A big thanks to all who came and really demonstrated the joy of friendships we have in square dancing.

As we approach St Patrick’s Day we celebrate an Irish theme and serve spuds for tea. A lovely crowd joined us for pre-dance dinner and a fun night. Our learners are now only 2 weeks away from completion and also joined us for the dining extravaganza!
Thanks to the team of helpers who set up the hall decorations and dining arrangements.

The smell of BBQ’d sausages filled the air as we celebrated our National Day with a BBQ tea and dance to follow. Thanks to the Largs Bay Rotary for so efficiently cooking all the sausages, shasliks and onions.
With so many in Aussie colours dancing to Australian music – looked great!

As a celebration of French National Day (Bastille Day) we put on our French themed night. As we did last year for the birthday, we decorated in French theme, everyone dressed in a French style, we enjoyed all sorts of croissants, cheesecakes and cheeses and such for supper and enjoyed French background music. There were even a couple of French Square Dance songs in there too. Thanks to everyone who joined in – particularly our learners group. Merci!
