A wonderful weekend as around 60 of our dancers converged on the Yorke Peninsula town of Wallaroo. Some time spent on walking tours, a lot of coffees and eating, mine tours in nearby Moonta and of course 2 dances in the beautiful Wallaroo Town Hall. A lovely weekend but most of all a great time spent with some lovely people – getting to know each other a little better.
Big thanks to Anne and Allan Tuckfield who prganised many of the activites and catered at various times. Fantastic!

Ah – c’est magnifique!
What a wonderful 29th Birthday celebration we had with our theme – Une Affaire Francais. Everyone dressed the part in some way and what a colourful collection of Berets. Strains of Edith Piaf and accordion music welcomed guests and we filled the hall with happy dancers. Thanks to Jeff Seidel, Les Tulloch, John Casey and Ian Rutter for joining in with the calling and to Thelma McCue for the themed Rounds.
Food – wow – plenty of croissants, crepes, French Onion Soup, eclairs, chocolat, cheeses etc to provide a welcome break in the night.
Big thanks too to all those who helped out making food, decorations and setting up, pulling down.
A memorable evening and we launch now into our 30th year. What a rush!

Put on the food and they shall come! Combine that with a shopping experience and you’ve got it made!
Out annual pancake night was a great success with all you can eat pancakes being cooked right there in the hall. Non stop up until supper time and they kept coming back for more. Again we thank Kay and Scott from the Pancake King for doing an excellent job.
We also had the pleasure of hosting Yvonne from Durrant Shoes who set up het “pop up” stall at the back of the hall. By the looks of things, some satisfied customers were pleased with their new purchases.

As with many Aussies, we celebrated our National Day with a bar-b-que dinner with the added bonus of good night’s dancing to follow. Thanks to you all for coming and making it a great night. The BBQ cooked beautifully again by the Flagstaff Venturers and the hall looked great. Even had Aussie summer weather – hot outside but cool in so many ways inside!

Congratulations to our new graduates! It’s been a lot of fum and a lot of learning to master this mainstream program but we made it. A nice crowd was there to help welcome our new grads and it was a really lovely atmosphere. Thanks to Heather Wheeler (Society president) and Jan Stephens (vice president) for the welcoming words and “packs” presented. We welcomed a couple of interstate visitors, Con and Alma, from Mackay in Qld too. Special thanks to Les Tulloch who came along on request to set up gear for us as Graham had injured his back. Also thanks to John Casey and Ian Rutter for the calls on the night too.
Welcome to our newest members of the club and may you enjoy many years of fun and friendship with us!
