20.01.2022 No square dancing this Friday 27 November. Another group are taking over the hall for the weekend for their Christmas display. Ah well! never mind. Next week we are back.

19.01.2022 We are back. Started square dancing last Friday and yes with covid19 safety plan in place. And yes had to social distance, chairs were spaced 1.5 metres apart. Sanitised after each bracket. And cleaned the hall before and after the dance. The dancers still had a great time. Now planning for our Christmas Luncheon.

09.01.2022 Here are 8 reasons to enjoy square dancing. It is: So much fun that you will be smiling within minutes, laughing and wanting to keep on dancing. Great ph...ysical exercise, involving almost constant movement without begin overly tiring, as you step in time with the music forming moving patterns with the other dancers in your square. Good mental exercise: learning each step, reacting to what the caller says and participating in the endless shapes that result. The challenge is in not knowing what comes next; the next step is called out to you. Easy to learn, providing a great sense of accomplishment and teamwork. Danced to enjoyable music including Rhythm and Blues, Golden Oldies, Gospel, Rock, Country and Western, Holiday Songs, Current favorites and even Classical tunes. A stress reducer. If you make a mistake, half the fun is figuring out how to get where you need to go. We laugh as we learn. A fine way to meet people and make new friends. It is more social than other dances since you dance with three other changing couples in your square. An activity that can be done by anyone in reasonable shape. You do not have to be graceful or coordinated to square dance. You don’t have to worry about stepping on your partner’s toes, because you are usually going in different directions. No fancy footwork is required.

05.01.2022 Excellent night last night. 3 beginners and 13 dancers. Nice to see Diane from Pottsville with us. Diane originally from Armidale. We are planning on having a luncheon for our birthday March 20 at the Wollongbar Tavern.
