Spares & Pairs

Even though the calendar tells us that autumn officially began on Sept. 23, the weather has been a different story!  Due to the efforts of Dixie Holton, Spares and Pairs began collecting club dues and membership to SDM.  A BIG thank you to Dick Rueter for the Plus Workshops during the last three months, as well as the energetic ABC dances, the first three weeks of Sept.  Lessons are now under way!

If you were at the MN State Fair this year, you more than likely got some dancing in, or watched those who did!  The new square dance t-shirts seem to attract positive attention by everyone.

Dick has been joined by Monte Guenzler, a new caller from Rochester, who drives up most weeks and adds to our dancing pleasure.  Not too long ago an out-of-town guest, familiar to some of us, Robert Remski was in town and stopped by.

In addition to our own king and queen Jennifer and Barry Downs, we’ve been seeing a lot of queen Bonnie Eidman from Ar Dales!  Caller Randy Dougherty joined us last month and added some zest!

Want to dance every Wednesday night?  Don’t forget we are at the KC Hall from 6:30 – 10:00 and recently had our “Back to The 50’s, and “T-Shirt” nights in Sept.  Come join us for fun, frivolity, and friendship!  (The decorations aren’t bad either!!!)
