Literally as well as figuratively! The dance on July 19th was cut short due to a power failure which occurred about half an hour after the dance started. But was that a problem for the band? Apparently not, as this extremely talented and generous band came right back on July 26th and set up and played all over again. The music was fantastic, the dance floor saw lots of action and everyone had a great time. Thanks so much to all the band members: Mike Evans – guitar and vocals, Archie MacLean – drums and vocals, Warren Allan- bass and vocals, Ken Gustafson – pedal steel guitar and vocals, and Bill Barclay on keyboards and vocals.
Wes Herman and Kristy Goh won tickets to the next dance and the upcoming Latin Dance workshop. The winner the 50/50 draw of $57.50 was Bonnie Owen.
A multitude of thanks to all the volunteers helping to set up, decorate, tend bar, clear tables, put out snacks, do the dishes, wash the tablecloths (2 times) . . . the list goes on. It couldn’t be done without them!
