September 11th - Back to School Sock Hop! Got any clothing that is from the 50s? Now is the time to drag it out, slick back your hair or pony tail it, flip it, whatever, and come have a great night. Square dance attire is also admired. George Hermann will be calling and Jackie Gale will be cueing for your dancing pleasure. Be creative with those finger foods. Gosh, what did we eat back in the 50s? Can anyone even remember? And for those not old enough to know, just bring some yummy snacks. We should have a fun time in the old town tonight! Schedule: 7:30 pm is Plus; 8:00 pm is mainstream and rounds. We take a break around 9:15 pm and then dance until 10:30 pm.

Check out the new sound boards (baffles) which many volunteers from several clubs made and hung. Thanks to Marvin Baker for heading up the project. And thanks to Leo Weninger and the many members of several clubs who helped to make and assembled them. And while you are at it, give a close listen to the new center hanging speaker which was donated anomyously. Now there are no more dead spots on the dance floor! (We are still tweaking the system, but so far, so good.)

September 25th - Another wonderful dance with Craig Abercrombie as caller. It will be a hot time since he always stirs up a speedy dance rhythm. Schedule is the same as above, and finger foods are always welcome.

Jackie Gale will be cueing. And as many of you know, Jackie has been a guest caller for us a number of times, but now she is our club cuer. We are very lucky!

Cleaning the Hall

Ready for anything!

These are going to be spotless!

Spray, spray, spray.

At 8:00 a.m. Saturday morning, August 1st, a bunch of square dancers showed up to clean the front (and side and back doors and lights) of the Emerald Square Dance Hall. There were more cobwebs in the eaves, on windows and door frames, and dirt on the walls than one can imagine. When it was done it looked like it had been painted. We can again be proud of our square dance hall which will now be an inviting vision for visitors. 

Clean it up!

Get that dirt!

Should we do that too?

Thanks to John Pape and his power washing equipment (and cleaning the concrete  sidewalk as well), Terry Nelson and his hosing down the walls and lights, Leah Firth for cleaning up everything they left behind on the ground,  Shirley Marc for dealing with cobwebs around doors and other parking lot refuse, and John Dilg for his window washing expertise, and Michael and Diane Burt for their work and for overseeing the whole process. Yay Team!

Wear a bit of white so we can find you in the dark. White gloves help the dancers a lot. You can also wear green for the St. Patricks day theme.
