Regularly Held - Orlando Community Church Dances!!!

There are regular monthly dances in the Orlando area that are open to the general public.  Music style is mostly of the past 40 years.  This unrestricted age group is generally middle aged and senior adults.  Most are single.  This dance community is made up mostly of church going people that enjoy wholesome dance activities and travel this circuit of dances throughout the month.  The history of these dances have been primarily for single people.  Over the past years however, many couples have married and continue to attend because of the many friendships that have been made over the years and love to sustain this worthy community activity.  These dances have traditionally been open to all that will attend while respecting the original intent that this is held for single people.  Other dance information is provided below to promote wholesome community social activities.

4TH SaturdayS of the month in 2009  DISCONTINUED       

 

October 17, 2009

     Life changes and so must we.  We must now move on to other places to find work and it is with regret that we must now cancel these 4th Saturday Dances.  We have enjoyed serving you these past two years and have enjoyed your friendship.  We also want to give special recognition to Walter (our favorite cowboy) for faithfully staying late each week to help us clean up.  His kindness has kept us going as well as Dick Saltzman for the numerous dance lessons as well as other instructors that have graced our halls, and especially you, our regulars that attended these dances. When you have the choice to sit it out or dance, we hope you'll dance!  We love you all and God be with you till we meet again.

Thanks for the memories,

Les and Rose Draper
