If All Day Long You've Been Wantin' To Dance, Well All Night Long You're Gonna Get Your Chance! Don't Sit Home Just-a-Twiddlin' Your Thumbs, You Can't Resist The Sound Of The Drivin' Drums! Wooo! Dance, Dance, Dance When You Hear That Beat! Wooo! Dance, Dance, Dance Get Up Offa Your Seat! Wooo! Dance, Dance, Dance Let Your Backbone Slip! Let's Go To That Place Where The Kids Are Hip! (Freddie "Boom Boom" Cannon)
Alright fellow babies, it's Cinco de Mayo weekend, and if you're looking to Dance (and who isn't), then it's a fully loaded weekend! If you're a Club Dancer, there's a Top Hat Dinner Dance on Saturday evening and a 100 Club Dinner Dance on Sunday evening! For the rest of us, 2 excellent Dance opportunities await you! First, on Saturday, May 4th, the place to be is
The Flamingo Ballroom 305 S. Main St. North Syracuse, N.Y. 13212 where we bring you the next offering of
Dance Divine! Yeah baby! Always a fun time, we'll start the evening off with an Open Lesson from 7:00-8:00 pm! This time the Lesson is in West Coast Swing! Followed by Open Dancing from 8:00-11:00 pm to a Ballroom, Latin, Swing, Country, mix! Cost is the same as always;
$10.00 per person!
So, you came out of the gate really strong and now you're looking for more! Good call! On Sunday May 5th we take the short drive to the quaint little city of Oneida, N.Y.! Specifically to The Kallet Civic Center 159 Main St. where Kim Ocuto-Gurley & Maria Cirino bring us their monthly Dance! Woohoo! Another great Dance opportunity! Sad to say, this may well be the last Dance at The Kallet, at least for the foreseeable future! The Kallet is either being sold or has been sold and it's fate (at least to me) is unknown! The Kallet has changed hands multiple times over the decades we've been Dancing there, and always seems to bounce back! So, if in fact this is the end of an era, you most certainly will want to be there for it! The Dance will run from 6:00-9:30 pm! There is no Lesson, just Open Dancing for the whole evening to a music mix suitable for Line Dancers and Couples Dancers! Admission is
$10.00! Come out and Dance one last time on the Dance Floor that has the greatest and most storied history of any Ballroom in Central N.Y.!
Alright fellow babies, with everything that's going on Dancewise, if this weekend is not motivation for you to get out and Dance, then Dancing is just not your thing! Hope to see you at either one or both of these fine Dance Events! I'll be looking for you! Thank you! Stay well and be blessed! -
