Swing of things
Sun-downers set
square sessions
The Midnight Sun-downers have
set September 11 as the tentative
starting datefor their next class
in American Square Dancing.
Classes start at 7 p.m., and
will run for the succeeding 15
weeks. The first three nights
are open for registration of new
dancers, and are at no cost. The
registrations must close after
that because of the nature and
volume of material to be present-
ed.
The club is asking those in-
terested to contact one of the
officers and leave names and phone
numbers. The officers are: Ron
Markus (8252),Lee Kasting (8566),
Boyd Swartz (8106), Larry Pearson
(8650), Gena Shibley (8565) and
Sandy Gray (8589). A minimum of
16 couples is needed for classes
to commence.
A number of senior teens have
also expressed an interest in the
class, but were not sure if they
were eligible. Senior teens are
eligible and welcome to attend
the classes.
This is your chance to learn
to square dance, as the next class
is not planned until after Janu-
