AUGUST DANCE  2016 

 

      The final Summer Dance was held on a fine evening, in the Osprey suite of the Commodore hotel on Friday 29th August and was attended by  sixty seven  keen members and friends. A warm welcome was extended to all by President John Johnston 

   The evening was a great success, thanks to the excellent music of the Scott Band Dance Band Trio, comprising drummer Kevin Milne, keyboard player  Bill Euan  and accordionist Scott Band.   This band has never played for us before but were so good, they will assuredly be asked back in the future.

     The raffle raised the magnificent sum of £181 which will of course be added to the pot for distribution in 2017.   

     The next event will be a Ceilidh and Dance on Friday 30th September, when the band will be the Steven Carcary Scottish Dance Band. Guest artistes will be fiddler Emma Steel and guitarist Mark Neal, both of them solo artistes but will also be entertaining us as a duet.  

      Membership fees have largely been paid over the last few weeks but a few still remain to be paid. It would be appreciated if this could be done fairly soon.
