Ahoy me hearties!  We had a fine beginning to our season with our Talk Like A Pirate Day dance on September 19, with visitors from as far away as Texas!  Here are those in costume, which added a visual reflection of the colourful language.

Hi Everybody,

I hope you all having a great summer.  We look forward to seeing many of you at Circle 8 Ranch in a few weeks.  I hope you are all looking forward to getting back to regular dancing in the fall as I am.

Thanks for your great feedback about the schedule and dance times.  Based on this we will do the following:

• Start on Thursday, Sept 19, since many people are away in early September, and hold the last dance Dec 19, so we get in 10 dances  
• Dance from 7:30 - 9:20 pm with “coffee” break 9:20 - 9:40 pm to avoid the early evening traffic and have a social time at the end of the dance so all can relax, then help clean up (we have to be out of the hall by 10 pm)

Therefore, Brent’s Bunch will start dancing again on Thursday, September 19 with our Talk Like A Pirate Day dance, at the Burnaby Lake Pavilion from 7:30 – 9:20 pm.  We have 10 nights of dancing in the fall of 2019 as shown in the schedule. 

Of course, visitors are always welcome.  The visitor fee is $7.50 per person per night to be put in the jar, so please bring exact change.  The annual FVSRDA insurance fee is $15.00 per dancer and is due in September. 

Please let me know if you have any questions.  Therese and I look forward to seeing you soon.

Best Regards,
Brent

Visit to Rainbow Squares

A group of us visited Rainbow Squares for their wind-up Tribute to Sinatra Dance, which fell on Brent's birthday.  Here we are posing with the banner and Ol' Blue Eyes himself.  Thanks to Janet Purser for taking the photo.

Mystery Dance April 25

We had a fun time at our annual Mystery Dance.  As usual, no one except Brent & Therese dressed for the theme, which was New Orleans.

Here is a link to additional photos.

Mystery Dance

Please consider joining us this Thursday April 25 for our famous Mystery Dance.  Brent picks the theme without telling us until we get to the hall, and dancers who dress in the theme will win a prize. 

The following week is our final dance of the season.  We'd love to see any of our past dancers who'd like to come to say hello.
