Dance Punch Cards Available
2019-20 dance season punch cards will be available for purchase at our dances. The cost is $40 for 6 dances and the card can be used by members and guests. There is no expiration date for these punch cards. No additional fee is needed for 5th Friday, Special Caller or Multple Callers Dances.
Greeters & Kitchen Hosts Needed
Please support our club by taking your turn to serve as greeter and kitchen host/hostess this dance season. If every couple takes both a night to greet and a night to serve in the kitchen, we're completely covered! Your assistance with these services makes a real difference in how our club is perceived by other dancers. Help us make everyone feel welcome both on the dance floor and at break time! Please do your share and sign up now.
You can sign up at one of our dances or call our Vice-President, Vicki Lieske @ 360-488-6167. If you're unable to keep the date you selected, please let Voclo know who your replacement will be.
Lessons
Our next set of lessons will begin next fall on Sept. 17th. Mona Fairbanks and Peggy McCright will be our new class coordinators. Please attend lessons and serve as "angels" to our new dancers.
Mystery Caravan
The Caravan Coordinators, Robert Reichle and Vicki Lieske, will be putting together our 2020 caravan. Stay tuned for more details.
2019-2020 Season Dance Passes Available
The club is again offering a Season Dance Pass for all Dudes and Dolls only. The cost for the 2019-20 dance season is $120 and is for all of our dances. No additional fees are needed to cover the cost of a 5th Friday, special caller, or multiple callers dance. The Season Dance Pass is only good for one dancer. However, you can share your Season Dance Pass with your dance partner. Your dance partner can use the Season Dance Pass if they are attending but you are not attending the dance. If both of you attend the dance, only one of you can use the pass while the other pays the dance donation (either $8, $9 or $10). Season Dance Passes are available for purchase at the sign-in table at most of our dances.
Volunteers Still Needed
Although we don't say it often enough, many thanks to those of you who keep our club running. Your efforts do not go unnoticed and we really appreciate all that you do.
We will be looking for volunteers for the 2019-2020 positions. Use the Contact Us form on our website or call and let our Secretary or President know you're interested.
Workshops
Thanks to everyone who attended our workshops. If you have time, please complete this quick survey to share your opinion or ideas. Please let Tom Berg know if you have ideas for upcoming workshops.
