Visitors from Olympia WA

We were delighted to welcome Gary and Cindy from Olympia WA to our first dance of 2026. Above are Cindy, Therese, Brent, Gary and Chuck. Happily, they will be back to dance with us again in February, and are registered for Festival 2026 in Penticton.

Chuck is modelling the black and blue club colours we had while named the Chuckouts, ten years ago.

Season End Party

 

We will maintain the current schedule of doors open at 7:15 pm, with Plus dancing with rounds from 7:30 pm – 9:15 pm.  We do not plan to provide any drinks or have a food break except on special occasions to be determined. 

 

The nightly dance fees will remain the same at $8 / person for prepaid sustaining members and $10 / person for guests. 

 

The sustaining member prepaid rate will be $8 x 13 = $104 / person.  If you were a prepaid member for the Fall 2026 session, we owe you for one missed session in December 2025, so your fee will be $8 x 12 = $96 / person. You can pay at the dance by cash, check, or tap (credit or debit card), or e-transfer to Brent.Mawdsley@gmail.com.    

 

We value and appreciate your participation in any way that works for you. 

 

Please let us know if you have any questions or suggestions. 

 

Best Regards,

Brent & Therese
