COME DANCING
AGAIN


Our season has started off very well and already we have been taught some new dances, a Waltz, Rumba, Foxtrot and a Stroll - that's a new one on us! Our leaders attend a meeting once a month where they are instructed on the new dances and they then teach us greenhorns.

October saw us hosting the first of our long night Saturday dances, an evening much enjoyed by forty or so club members and visitors from other clubs. Who remembers the old song I've Got Sixpence? That was one of the tunes we danced to, and it was surprising how many knew or remembered the words to sing along to.

Near to Christmas we will be holding a dance where we dance around a Christmas Tree, which is quite often 12 - 18 foot high. It's a very popular occasion and usually the hall is full to capacity. Where possible we enjoy some Carols, we are refreshed with Punch, and really start to feel the Christmas spirit.

From the profit on the dance a donation is sent to aid some local organisation or charity.

We will still be meeting at Milford Village Hall on Wednesdays from 8.00 to 10.30 pm so if you want to join us come along and meet us. You can come on your own but its better with a partner. For any further information ring Peggy on 01483 415300
