Thank you to all of those that attended the successful dance on Saturday 3 October. The band, JIM'S RV played a wide range of songs such as Jail House Rock, Living Doll, Whiskey in the Jar, Wagon wheel, I go Walking after midnight. One of the band members lead the crowd with a Line Dance number and even the Hokey Tokey. The dancing was fantastic with a mix of true Rock 'n' Roll, gentle waltz type and general fun movement shared by all. It was a great event with having a good sized crowd of mixed ages. Some participants asked if there was to be similar event on a regular basis. Thanks again, from all of the organising committee.
The Raffle was drawn half way through the evening resulting with three happy winners.
2nd Prize - wine glasses, outdoor lights etc.
Netball & large tin of Milo!
