New Year's Eve Dance 12-31-2009
For the Rainier Council, the Swinging Squares club hosted a mainstream New Years Eve Dance. The theme was a "speakeasy" from the Roaring 20’s, and music was provided by the Old Time Fiddlers, a wonderful group of local talented musicians. We had six squares on the floor, with more dancers still in the kitchen-dining area. Many dancers wore Roaring 20's costumes.
Diane and Frank Fohn took lots of photos. Click here to see them.
Parker Award Dance
Hello Swinging Squares and Friends of Swinging Squares.
I want to thank everyone who attended our dance on September 25th honoring Tom & Fay Tomlinson, as you know they are this years winner of the Parker Award. Greg Webber called a fantastic dance. Lorraine Rouse and Sue Webber cued the rounds. We had 8 Squares on the floor. Many in attendance were past award winners in several categories.
Thanks for making it a special night.
