SUNSHINE:     To Chuck Epperson who is down with bronchitis, hope you feel better soon.  Also, much sunshine to Jerry Fenster,  Jerry had heart valve surgery, our prayer's are with you.  And to all those who have had bad colds, the flu and the nasties, in general, much SUNSHINE.
 
FROM YOUR EDITOR:    What a wonderful time we all had at the Snowman's Dance.  Even though attendance was down this year we still had a great dance.  Thank you Lynne for all your hard work in organizing this event.   Also our President, along with Lynne, wants to thank the many volunteers that made the dance possible.  Without your help and support we would not be able to have such a wonderful and successful dance.  Due to the weather, this year, the Dudes & Daisies have had to cancel several workshops as well as meetings.  Hopefully the bad weather is behind us and we can get on with the fun things in life, like square and round dancing.  "We love our snow, but it's time to release it and let it go".  Think for a moment.  What is it that you like to do?  If the answer is square/round dance then you can take my challenge and play a big part in making our club a hugh success?  Take this opportunity to decide how much time and effort you can give to the club.  Maybe there are certains things you can do and others that you can't do.  In order to spread the volunteer work around, I ask that you take a minute and write the things you can/can't do then e-mail your list to me or one of the other officers.  By volunteering you will not only be doing good for the club but you will be doing good for yourself.  We all feel better by giving of ourself's and by giving of yourself, to your club, OUR CLUB WILL BE A SUCCESS.      Thank you, Jeannie
 
FROM THE PRESIDENT'S DESK:   Oops, I'm finally getting the hang of things, like getting my information to Jeannie in time for the newsletter.  I wanted to thank those who attended the dance at the Wayside Inn, in January, but missed the February newsletter so here we are in March.   Although there were only 3 of us Dudes & Daisies, Tom, Carmen and I, we had great participation from the Circle N Squares.  Special thanks to them and the Dudes & Daisies who attended, making this demostration a success.  The group was ready to give square dancing a try and there were 3 full squares dancing most of the time.  Dean REALLY took them fast and they had a ball.  The dance was a good promotional event.   On another note, the Saturday Night Old Timers Reunion came off without a hitch.  Weather wise it was touch and go which had a slight impact on attendance but the dancers that attended had a great time.  We danced a little, had lots of great food and played a game that Scotty had brought.  We had a barrell of fun with the game as well as the dance. It was great to see those Old Timers again.   Judy
