December 2016 Single Trees Dances

From 2015 Christmas Dance

December 9th is Single Trees Christmas dinner (at 6:30 pm) followed by our dance at the ESDC in Hall A. Single Trees will supply the meat (leaning toward ham) and rolls. Anyone who is planning on attending please bring potluck food no later than 6:15 p.m. so we can eat on time in order to dance on time. It would be much appreciated.

Jim Hattrick is the caller for this dance which starts with plus squares at 7:30 p.m. At 8 p.m. we will move into rounds and mainstream.  Our cuer, Jackie Gale, will be on tap for all the round dance aficionados. We hope to see many of our friends from other clubs attend this dance.

Special New Year's Eve Dance, December 31st - (only $2.50 each to celebrate 25 years of the square dance hall). Bring a pie, too (or something that will go with pie). The dance is being hosted by Roger Putzler as caller, and Christina Corelli as cuer. Rounds start are 8:30 p.m. with mainstream starting at 9:00 p.m. and every 3rd tip plus. A toast with sparkling cider in stemmed glasses will occur every hour covering all time zones of the U.S.A. There will be one square dance tip after midnight before closing. All clubs are invited to attend this fun, end of 2016 dance.
