Leave a reply

Graham with Jutta and Mark from Germany

We were thrilled to welcome 2 visitors to our Wednesday Plus club recently. Jutta and Mark from the Black Forest region in Germany dropped in for a night of Plus with us. They are enjoying a “just retired” world trip and really had a ball dancing with us as they were quite apprehensive about the language. No problem! Happy travels.

2018 June 11th – Charity Dance

Leave a reply



As a precursor to our next intake of learners AND to raise funds for the Cancer Council of SA, we hosted a Charity Dance.
A wonderful crowd from the public and square dancers alike enjoyed a couple of hours of being shown what fun this great activity is and how different it is to their memories of many years ago.
Big thanks to the club members who provided a huge spread of supper – a real treat after all that exercise!
Now onto 6 weeks of open nights to launch our new learners’ intake.

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.

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!

What a great crowd! We opened our doors to the public as a fund raising dance in support of the Cancer Care Centre. We ran a night of alternating teaching and Mainstream and threw in some mixer dances as well.
A great atmosphere and by all reports, everyone thoroughly enjoyed themselves. The President of the Cance Care Centre was there dancing the night away and said few words to welcome everyone and share an amazement at what square dancing really is – a whole lotta fun.
All proceeds from the night will be tallied up and presented to the Centre shortly and we thank all of you who came along and supported the night.

St Patrick’s Day was celebrated with a hearty spud meal before the dance. O’Laughlins Catering brought their famous spud van along and served an extraordinary number of spud meals to a happy group of dancers.
Before we launched into the dancing we were pleased to be able to present the fundraising cheque from our Charity night to two representatives of the Royal Flying Doctor Service. Rod and Sandy James (square dancers themselves!) received the cheque and thanked everyone for their donations. After hearing what it cost to keep a RFDS plane flying, we may have to run a few more charity dances!!
The rest of the night was a lot of fun with alternating brackets of learners and mainstream and everyone looked great in green dancing in the well decorated hall. Thanks to our committee and helpers for setting it up and packing away.

As is our custom we held a Spud night for our St Patricks theme thsi year. Dancers enjoyed a catered spud tea before the dance courtesy of the spud van. Great to see everyone dress to the green theme too.

We had a special guest – Kathryn from the Guide Dogs brought in one of the beautiful dogs to accept the cheque donation from our St Valentine’s Charity night. She was thrilled and gave us a run down on what it takes to train these lovely animals. Both dog and caller behaved themselves on stage and we were proud to present them with the donation.
