Ballroom Newsletter, Siskiyou County & Northern California – May 9th 2022

Dear All,

And another practice party OADW (Over And Done With) and another FTHBE (Fabulous Time Had By Everyone). Remember, if you didn’t make it last Friday TCHBY (That Could Have Been You)!  But no worries, we have another one coming up on June 3rd so – chances galore for everybody (CGFE)!  We understand that some of you were caught off guard by the timing of  this last party and we promise to announce it well in advance next time.

The new direct-from-computer-to-speaker-system song list was a huge success.  We did not have one song where the music skipped, so you will be happy to learn that TDAOFG (Those Days Are Over For Good)!  Even more incentive to CTOPP (Come To Our Practice Parties . . . and they said I would never get the hang of texting!).

So come to classes this week (and month) so that you will have even more to do at the next practice party which will turn into more fun for you, more fun for your partners and more fun for everyone!

One quick word about this week: the Thursday night class has to be cancelled for this week and this week only.  Our deepest apologies, but it couldn’t be avoided and we will DOD (Do Our Darndest) to make sure it will never be necessary again.

The good news is that we have decided to teach Cha-cha in June, and since 80% of Rumba and Cha-cha steps are interchangeable, it will be like getting an extension on the Rumba so you will end up not having missed out after all.  In fact, after you have converted your Cha-cha steps to Rumba, you will have come out ahead.  Three cheers for dance!

Join us this week AATWTC (And All The Weeks To Come)!  As always, we look forward to seeing you there (WLFTSYT).

 

Cheers (C),

 

Rick and Peggy Nixon

p.s.  We are relaxing Mask Protocols..  We will encourage the un-vaccinated to do what you feel is best for yourselves and will happily wear our own masks when dealing with you specifically should you so desire.  Otherwise, we are all on our own, now, as so-called adults should be.  Make your decisions accordingly but make them based on real information.

 

p.p.s.    What do you call it when The Lone Ranger takes you out for dinner and a movie?  A “masked man date”!
