Dear Members,
Some of our members have went up North for the summer months, we need more people to come in and enjoy our great club activities. Please bring in your family and friends whenever possible.
A lot of members do not attend our membership meetings, we need more people to attend on the 3rd Wednesday meetings. Express your ideas, give us your opinion. Lately we have only had small groups of our loyal members showing up to the dances every Sunday. The attendence has improved however, we need to have more... Please bring friends and family if you can. Tell everyone that you meet to come on down to the club on Sundays and have some old fashion fun. So come in early have some drinks, and dance the night away! We thank you for your support!
Beverly is still looking for someone to take over the newsletter. She can be contacted at 727-526-6835 if you are interested in that.
I wish to thank Paul Smith, Ken Jakubowski, Don Kohler, and Rande and Larry Burkett and anyone else I may have missed, for all their work inside the Club and the grounds, parking lot, etc. I also wish to thank the Poplawskis, Don Kohler, Randell Burkett, the Walseks, Bernadine Yencha and all others who contributed to our Scholarship fund.
Applications for scolarships are being accepted, this is for Members and relitives of members. Seniors in High School and College students too.
If interested, please call Barbara or Gene Poplaski at 1-972 - 741 - 3749.
A mention of the passing of Arlene Klazer. One of the club's more proliphic dancers. She will be sadly missed by all of us.
A special mention about the death of Cas Ziarko. Cas's father was one of our founders of the Society and he himself a President. Actually he was a president when I first came to the club 26 years ago. He remained active for a very long time, and contributed to the club in many ways. He was also a Treasurer for several years and donated his own money to pay for the band the last time that we had a new years eve party. Ofcourse, that is just a few of the many things that he had done to help with the support of this club. So we remember him with respect and admiration for his years of attendance and service to our society.
Please spread the word of our great club and activities to all those that you may know. This will help to keep our memberships and participents in high spirits.
