Monthly Dance, Friday 28th July 2017

The regular monthly function Ceilidh Dance was held on Friday 28th July, as usual, in the Osprey Suite of the Commodore Hotel, Helensburgh.  Music for the evening was very ably provided by The Nicky McMichen Scottish Dance Band, comprising, George Gary on drums, Claire Gullen playing the fiddle and Nicky himself on the Accordion..

A fiddle in the band certainly gives the music a new dimension!

The event went very well, though, as can be the case during the summer holiday months, the numbers attending could have been better. Having said that, the floor was filled for almost all the dances..

The raffle did well, considering the lower attendance tonight, with £156 being raised, which will go towards our annual charity donations later in the season. Thank you once again to all who donated prizes and of course, purchased tickets.

Auld Lang Syne brought the evening to an end and guests were wished a safe journey home by our association president, John Johnston.

***In a bid to raise attendance numbers, and encourage new members, any new folk encouraged to attend by existing members, will be admitted free of charge to the dances held in September and October***
