Club night Monday 11 May 2023

We had a fun night on Monday with a 3 piece live band (Lynne Scott, Mary MacDonald and Ann Goodbehere) filling the hall with their music. There were also a few visitors from Tawa and Lower Hutt clubs which gave a nice boost to our numbers.

Diane finished her 4 weeks teaching us, which everyone seems to have enjoyed. We have certainly covered quite a few formations over the last few weeks, so we are well placed for various upcoming dance programmes. We look forward to seeing Diane again for a couple of weeks in July. Until then Ann will be back and we will be preparing for our theme night on 29 May and annual dance on 1 July.
