Eagles Club Swing: Labor Day WCS Dance Party

Howdy Dance Partner!     <---- *John Wayne's voice*
 
Well here we are again, getting ready for some SERIOUS PARTYING!!!!!
 
And how can you tell when someone is doing some serious partying?? Mostly their facial expression. They look serious.
 
All seriousness aside, it's time for our "First Wednesday of the Month" West Coast Swing Dance Party! This month, we are celebrating Labor Day, some come on down and celebrate by doing the opposite of labor: goofing off! We will be playing lots of great dance tunes to assist with said off-goofing! Expect our usual outstanding mix of WCS tunes, as well a little East Coast, Lindy, Two Step, ChaCha, Waltz, "Swango", Hustle, Salsa, and Night Club 2 Steps! Also, some icky romantic songs too for all the Grown Ups. (Thank goodness I'm not a grown up yet!)
 
 Also, because I am a big fan of thankless tasks, I have spent a lot of time laboring over a hot Internet connection to net us a bunch of new WCS tunes! (New to me anyway) So come out and bask in the sonic goodness! The music starts at 7:00, and runs until 11:00-ish. Same entry: $3 members - $5 Non-members.
 
 Please feel free to bring along some finger foods to wow people with your cooking prowess!
 
 See you there!
 
 May the Dance gods smile upon your footwork,
 
 Josh "Always Serious" Angel

Joshua Angel & Sandi Larkins are mainly teaching West Coast Swing to help out the Sunshine Eagles Club at 4562 NW 13th Street, Gainesville Florida. The classes are taught on Wednesdays at 7:15 p.m. We ask for donations of $3 for Eagles Club members and $5 for non-members please.
 
Please remember that the Sunshine Eagles Club is a non-profit agency that raises money for charitable organizations, while providing a place to socialize and hold events like these. For more info or to learn how you can volunteer; see below or visit http://4518.foe.com/
 
Every First Wednesday of the Month is a West Coast Swing Dance Party! So come out and show off what you have learned! Same time, same place, same donation amount, but lots less of the usual endless droning from Josh!
 
Josh & Sandi are not professional dancers or teachers, but they are looking to help people learn this fun dance and make the Sunshine Eagles Club a dance haven!
