Samena Squares Newsletter #18

Dear Friends,

Another fun Thursday night! Good crowd! Welcome back Ben and Donna!

Thank you to Susanne for teaching Turn Thru. Good job! Thank you to all the angels who stayed after to provide a square for Susanne to call to.

Please review all the recent calls that we have learned before Thursday. This week we will learn some new calls but we will also be learning the first of two rules that you will need to know. We will learn one this week and one next week in addition to actual calls.

I hope that you are planning to attend the Samena Squares dance on Friday, February 22. I will be calling. Even if we are not quite finished with all the calls, no one will know. I will call only what we have covered in class. The theme is Tropical Getaway so your Hawaiian shirts or muumuu’s are perfectly appropriate attire.

I’m sure that there was something else that I was going to write about this week. It has been so busy at our house that it flew right out of my mind. If I think of it I will write next week. If you think of it, let me know.

Stay warm! It’s going to be cold this week! See you Thursday!

Happy dancing,
Susan
