GREAT LAKES SWING DANCE NEWS
CLUBCLUB Message from our President
Hello Everyone!
Our New Year’s Eve Dance party was a grand success! It was held
at the St. John’s Activity Center in Fenton. There were 97 members
and guests in attendance. The yummy selections of finger food were
plentiful and delicious; and the desserts kept everyone coming back
for more all night long. Dave played our favorites and helped us count
down to the new year in style. Leo and Marge Brennan did a marvelous
job as always planning this event. Thank you to everyone who helped
set up and clean up, your help is always very much appreciated.
The first theme dance of the year is coming up on February 12th.
Let’s celebrate Valentine’s Day at RollHaven with DJ Henry Royster
spinning the tunes.
I want to remind all current club members your 2020 membership
dues must be paid no later than February 28th. There are applications
available at the RollHaven registration table, in this newsletter and
on our website GLSDC.org.
February’s dance lesson is West Coast Swing taught by Angela
Markle. Our DJ line-up: Joann, Henry, Angela and Dave.
See you on the dance floor,
Jim

Use good manners at all times
Social dancing mixes people of all backgrounds into one melting pot called the dance floor. It’s always in good taste to use good manners when speaking to each other in this setting. Be on your best behavior when speaking to others of the opposite sex and chose topics of conversation wisely.

Forever Young. Dancing is tremendously beneficial in keeping us young. It
retards the aging process immensely. It benefits our heart, cardiovascular
system and increases our lung capacity. Fact: The muscle exertion and breathing
rates of dancers performing in one dance competition is equivalent to those of
cyclists, swimmers and an Olympic-level 800-meter runner.
