Our Halloween Dance

 Friday night Oct. 28 we had our annual Halloween dance at the Emerald Square Dance Center in Springfield.  What a hoot it was!  We had dancers from Lebanon, Corvallis and Roseburg join us.  While we were very sad that Jim Hattrick was unable to be there that night, we enjoyed dancing to Mark Wheeler's calling.  Mark has called for us in the past and often has accompanied Jim Hatttrick as he was one of Jim's proteges.    The dance was made more interesting with so many coming in costume.  We gave out free dance passes and prizes to quite a  few: Brenda and Pete from Roseburg, our own Melba, Vonda, Alan and Chris.  

There were two squares on the floor all night with three one time when our cuer Jackie agreed to fill in.  Someone (we believe it was our president Larry Reetz) brought a delicious chocolate cake and had it all cut up for those lucky enough to get to the break bar quickly enough.  Yum!  Thanks to all who brought goodies for the club and our guests.  And thank you to Mark for coming as Elvis and adding to the fun.  Jackie and Bill also helped make the dance fun, but  we were sorry to see Bill laid up with a broken toe.  Get healed up soon, Bill, so we can dance with you again.

 

We're looking forward to our next dance on the 4th Friday in November, the day after Thanksgiving.  We are not sure at this time if Jim will be able to join us.


Here are some photos from the dance:
