PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE
Happy Fall to all, and YEA for the first real rain! Our Luau Dance was a nice
success. Scott and Erin were lots of fun to dance to. The attendance at our dance
was also unusual, as we had dancers from North, South and West—just about
every club was represented within a 100 mile radius! Twain Heart Twirlers were
there in force and took one of our banners home with them. Off course this
means that we will have to get a square together and go to one of their dances to
get it back. FUN

We would like as many of our club members to plan on attending the October
11th Saturday evening dance of the Calaveras Twirlers. It is their anniversary
dance and our own Jim and Sharon are calling and cuing. Check this newsletter
and the flyers table for more details. For those who have the stamina, there is
also a dance in Soulsbyville with the Twain Heart Twirlers on Sunday afternoon,
the 12th of October. If we can get a square together, we can retrieve our banner!
We need to support other clubs’ dances as they supported us this past month.
There will be a board meeting before club on the 6th of this month. Our club
board meetings are open to all members and start at 5:00 in one of the back
rooms of the Senior Center. Either eat before coming, or bring something you
can munch on if you wish. But remember, this is Party night, everyone bring
treats!
Another important event happening this month is the Yuba City Harvest
Hoedown. We have a special spot for the RV’ers at the top of the hill by the main
hall. As Wagonmasters we have a dinner planned at a Chinese Restaurant for
those who wish to eat together on Friday night. There will also be a potluck
dinner at our big RV space for all who wish to attend. Please bring a dish to
share. You do NOT have to be RVing to participate! We will have plenty of extra
plates and utensils. Come have fun with us starting on Thursday through Sunday,
or just Saturday for the potluck and dancing. This is a very happy and fun
event!
Yellow Rock! Ed and Bev
