‘76 <strong>Dance</strong> Club If you missed our April dance you missed some wonderful dance music and a fun time. Jack Yaus played some great danceable music for our dancing pleasure. As promised, I kept things short in our Annual Business Meeting and election of officers, so that we were able to return to dancing. Your ’76 Club Board consists of David Rose – President, Ross Brown – Vice President, Sharon Brown – Secretary, Jack Yaus – Treasurer, Judy Rose – Entertainment, Connie Rives – Trustee, Darla Mattice – Trustee, and Rudy Pittl – Trustee. I want to thank all of the Board members for their willingness to serve. You definitely do not want to miss our <strong>May</strong> dance because Cindy Mullins will be teaching a Country 2 Step lesson from 7:30 to 8:15 pm followed by our dance at 8:15 to 11:00 pm. Our DJ has indicated he will be playing some country music during the evening so you will be able to practice what you have learned in the lesson. The ’76 Club in <strong>May</strong> is one place you want to be!! Introduce a friend to our ’76 <strong>Dance</strong> Club Singles are always welcome!!! Our mission is to provide everyone with a great fun dancing experience. Remember, YOU ARE THE STAR at our dances. Please take time to let the Board know how we are doing with your dances. See you around the dance floor. - David Rose - Swing ‘n’ Sway Cinco, Seis, Siete, Ocho (five, six, seven, eight for those of you out there like myself and do not speak Spanish). Thanks to our Louise McCoy for another great job of decorating. Arbor Hall had the perfect look for the celebration of Cinco de <strong>May</strong>o and as usual John Bramhall provided the perfect music for the occasion including a Latin Two Step and West Coast Swing. Several Senioritas showed up dressed in Spanish attire making it easy to identify the theme for the night. To top off a very enjoyable night we were treated to another first at Arbor Hall with a Tango performed by a mother and son couple. Thank you to Mary Rose Pica and her son John Griffin for providing us with the perfect entertainment for the night. The theme for our <strong>May</strong> dance is ‘50’s & 60’s. This is usually one of our more popular dances maybe because a lot of us were around back then and because it was such a fun time to be alive. Greased down hair, tee shirts, white socks and rolled up jeans. Pony tails, poodle skirts, bobby socks and saddle oxfords. Just a few things you will probably see at our next dance. Terry Cavanaugh will be providing the music to get us ’in the groove’. It will be a lot of fun and you are not going to want to miss it. Hope to see you there. <strong>Dance</strong>(tonians) The weather was sunny and pleasant for the April 9th <strong>Dance</strong>(tonians) Easter dance. Colorful bunnies decorated the tables reminding us that spring has finally arrived in the Miami Valley. John Bucholz with his usual flair taught a fun Merengue group lesson. John Bramhall provided the fast paced dance music for the evening. Our next dance – <strong>Dance</strong> Fair- takes place on Saturday, <strong>May</strong> 14 at Hara Arena. There will not be a dance at Arbor Hall on that evening. John Bramhall will provide the dance music for the evening. The theme is Star Power and the purpose is to “celebrate” and “promote” <strong>Ballroom</strong> dancing in our community. Whether you will be performing an exhibition or attending as a spectator to enjoy the general dancing, it is a classy evening spent with friends that share your interest in ballroom dancing. Dinner, open dancing and exhibitions are on the agenda for a fun filled evening. The doors will open at 3:30 pm general dancing begins at 4:00 pm with dinner being served promptly at 5:00 pm. Tickets are available from all the <strong>Dance</strong>(tonians) board members or from your studio. Tickets are $60.00 per adult. A DVD video of the evening exhibitions will be available for separate purchase.
