President’s Pumpkin Patch

We have a lot to be thankful for this Holiday Season. Elections will be

over soon & we can concentrate on the real issues affecting us, like

finding a new VFW kitchen cook, will I mess up that new shag step,

will the DJ play my request (or even tell me who that artist was). Seri-

ously we need to thank those LHSC workers who

spend so much time & effort each month to ensure

our parties are a fun experience. You guys are the

best & I thank you so much for all that you do.

Turkey Tales….. The minister of the church was giving a Thanksgiving service.

A ragged man in the audience asked, 'What is there to be thankful for?'

Surprised, the minister replied, 'What is your name, sir?'

'Cause,' was the reply.

'Well Cause, you could be thankful for your healthy body...'

'I'm blind and I have lung cancer.'

'..or your family...'

'I don't have a family.'

'...or your home...'

'I don't have a home.'

"Well, then,' retorted the preacher, I guess you're a lost Cause!'

Moral: Don’t be a ‘Lost Cause”

We all have a lot to be thankful for!

So, What’s

for dinner?

Matthew goes to OD!

Carolina shag

The 'Carolina Shag' is a partner dance done primarily to Beach Music (100-130+ beats per minute in 4/4

time signature). Today, the Shag is a recognized dance in national and international dance competitions held

across the United States.

Technique The basic step in Carolina Shag is a six-count, eight-step pattern danced in a slot. The rhythm is similar to six-count

Swing in that it is triple step, triple step, rock step or counted as "one-and-two, three-and-four, five-six". There are

eight shag dance steps in the basic pattern. The "one-and-two" and "three-and-four" steps should take about as much

time to complete as the "five-six."

Carolina Shag often bears only the faintest resemblance to other dances that share the "shag" designation.

History The term "Carolina Shag" is thought to have originated along the strands between Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, and

Wilmington, North Carolina, during the 1940s. According to Bo Bryan, a Carolina Shag historian and resident of Beau-

fort County, the term was coined at Carolina Beach, North Carolina. The Carolina Shag is a descendant of Carolina

Jitterbug, and its predecessor, Little Apple (whose origins can supposedly be traced to Columbia, South Carolina in

1937).

Miscellaneous The 1989 film Shag starring Bridget Fonda, Phoebe Cates, Annabeth Gish, and Page Hannah as four high school

friends on their last road trip together before graduation, was filmed in Myrtle Beach and features the Carolina Shag.

In 1997 the country music band Alabama recorded the single called "Dancin', Shaggin' on the Boulevard" referencing

this style of dance.

In a 2014 episode of Steve Harvey (TV series), Harvey introduced a couple who dance the Carolina shag, and then Har-

vey disclosed that he has been studying and practicing the Carolina shag for an hour a day for the past year. [1]

Thanks to two of our special members...

Chip & Jackie Smith

who will be leaving us December 1st to head up a Christian Mission in Central

America. They have been instrumental in our club activities throughout the

last few years, providing Shag Instruction, decorating, assisting in party set-

ups and many more duties as needed by our club. We will miss them but I

know they have been called for a higher mission in life and we wish them the

best in spreading the gospel to those in need. I think I speak for

us all when I say we are proud of the calling you are answer-

ing….God speed in this new chapter of your

lives and thank you for all you have done in sup-

porting our club.
