The residents of the Ardoise area of West Hants County have a new activity to enjoy. InJanuary 2004, the second attempt to organize a square dance group in Ardoise proved to besuccessful. Caller Bruce Savage was coaxed to drive out to the Ardoise Community RecreationCentre on Thursday nights to teach an eager group of new dancers how to enjoy themselves atsquare dancing. Fourteen people have had a great time learning the basic movements that startseveryone on the journey through a life of square dancing! The couples and paired-up singles arewell on the way to completing the Mainstream 1-53 program and graduation in the Fall. |
The 21st annual Scotia Dancers Spring Fling was not only a dance, it was a party! Howcould you tell? Well the whoopin and hollering could be heard far and wide as the dancers hadthemselves a great time on the floor! |
