Some preliminary numbers about the USA Dance New Year's Eve events  (2006/2007)

    There were 389 breakfasts served on New Year's Day.  (lots of dancers left before breakfast, and some preferred to dance and didn't eat) 
    There were 270 plates set for the Thursday night Dinner-dance -- and may people came in just to dance, after dinner.
    There were over 400 dance lessons and workshops taught during the 4 time-slots per day.  (at $13 or less for a 75 minute dance lesson, from a world champion, this was a fantastic deal...)
    The Sheraton Waterside Hotel filled all of its rooms up and had to turn dancers away.
    NOBODY KNOWS exactly what the body-count was for all events, but let's estimate about 2,000 dance-events attended over the 5-day New Year's Eve Gala.  This was the 15th Annual event --- MAKE YOUR PLANS, NOW, to attend the 16th Annual New Year's event next year!

Please plan to attend our "Third Saturday" Fund Raiser dance, EVERY MONTH.  Make yourself a reminder. We hope to send a nice check to The Selected charity, but turn-out has been sparse.  Remember both Two Step Tidewater and DanceSportVa dance studio are participating in this, and only enough money is kept to cover operating costs.  Any and all incidental profit is turned over to the charity of the month

~~ Franklin D. Roosevelt ~~

PONDER THIS!

"Life is not a journey to the grave

with the intention of arriving safely

in a pretty and well-preserved body,

but rather to skid in broadside,

thoroughly used up,

totally worn out,

and loudly proclaiming:

WOW!! What a Ride!"
(Let's Dance!!!)

 Send us an email!

" I'll Be There" - Martina McBride Timeless album. One of several Two-Steps on the album and with a very good, moderate tempo. Love it! Come Sunday and listen to it.
