ABC Chanhassen

January 23, 2015 – 16 “new” dancers plus a “new” student came to the first ABC in Chanhassen. Two Come Square Dance officers, Vince and Ken, “angeled” all evening.  Thanks, guys!  Square Dance Minnesota’s chair, LeRoy, and treasurer, Deb, angeled all evening too!  Much appreciated!  Thanks, Becky Rong, for booking the room.  Mark Friday, February 6, on the calendar as the next ABC dance in Chanhassen.  Bring more newbies!

Responses from some newbies:

“You will see Lloyd and I dancing our little hearts out!  Such fun!  Thanks, Sharon Lee, for getting us there!  It’s a great group!”

“I absolutely enjoyed myself at the dance last night (January 23, 2015).  Everyone was so friendly, encouraging, and helpful.”

“I am looking forward to making this activity my life lesson in happiness, getting out, and meeting new, like-minded people.

“More fun than I ever expected!  We’ll be back.”

Sixteen "new" dancers plus a "new" student came to the first ABC in Chanhassen.

Thankfully, we had lots of angels!  Each one of you was necessary to keep the five squares dancing!   You provided the fun, the friendship, and the fellowship!

One new dancer shared that she really didn't want to come and didn't think she'd have any fun.   When she left, she said she had a ball and was really glad she came!   Thanks, angels!

The "personal invitation" by current dancers is what brought most of the "newbies."  Thanks, angels!
