A group of us travelled over to Perth for the 59th Australian National Square Dance Convention. A Nautical/Cruise theme brought out the best costumes and great decorations. We thoroughly enjoyed the convention and thanks to our dancers who represented us in a dressed set on the Saturday night.

Colours abound and the aroma of hot cross buns drives us to distraction!
It’s our annual Easter dance and a lovely atmosphere with all our dancers – learners, intermediates and mainstream – all joining in a celebration of the Easter weekend.
The hall looked great with some “Eggs-cellent” posters (by Graham).

With March brings our annual St Patrick’s theme night. Dancers dressed in green, hall decorated and a great dinner prepared, cooked & served by the spud van people. Irish songs capped it off and a lot of fun was had to be sure!
Here’s a couple of videos – thanks to Diana W.

And so we celebrate Xmas and wrap up another year of dancing at the Adelaide Outlaws Club. A wonderful crowd took part in the meal (cooked and served by Cheryl’s Kitchen) and the dancing. We had the three groups involved – our newest learners, intermediates and our Mainstream dancers. What a lovely atmosphere and we wish you all the best for the holiday season and look forward to seeing you again in 2018.
Here’s a video of one of the singing calls – The Drifters version of “White Christmas” – thanks to Maryka J for the video and you can find more from that night on her Youtube channel Maryka SJ.

These shots and video were taken on the last night of our begineers’ intake in November 2017. We teach for about an hour then dance them with our club dancers. The video captures the atmosphere well.
We love our square dancing but there’s nothing like the sheer joy on the faces of new dancers who “made it” through their first bracket with the “professionals”.

Congratulations to the group who have completed the mainstream program in October 2017. Due to various absences due to holidays away and health, they have been presented their certificates over a period of several weeks as each returned to the club.
May you all enjoy the fruits of your labour and welcome to the wonderful world of Mainstream Dancing.

Our annual Hallowe’en theme was held this year on Oct 30th. Great support by our dancers – Mainstream, intermediate and even some brand new learners who just came in and would have got a bit of a surprise!
Thanks to all who helped decorate and brought some interesting supper!
Great outfits too everyone!

What a gas man! Our 32nd Birthday was celebrated with a Swinging 60s theme. Here are some great photos and a video of the night. Thanks to all who dressed the theme and, with the 60s music, made it a memorable night.

Our annual celebration of Fathers’ Day saw some nice new posters created by one of our members Diana Waters. Lovely cartoon “father & child” characters.
A lovely turn up and entertaining dancing. A huge supper with hot pies & sausage rolls to complement a great basket supper collection!
Here’s a video compilation taken on the night.Thanks Diana! (Appropriately the song is “My Old Man’s A Dustman”!)

Thanks to Diana W for the photos.

We once again celebrate Bastille Day (July 14) with our French Night at the Monday Mainstream club. Great to see everyone dressed in French colours and berets and stage decorated to suit. Gustav Eiffel would be proud.
To top it off a supper that was “Magnifique” – croissants, tarts and much much more.
Thanks everyone for your support – the atmosphere was lovely. Merci beaucoup!
