Hi, dancers,
Monday dancers welcomed 2026 with familiar dances, and, for now, dancing is in the
"big room," a real treat. The evening closed with the lullaby, Nyandolo, from Kenya,
a simple, choreographed dance to the music of Ayub Ogado. In January,
dancing weekly on two more Mondays (12,26) and all Fridays (9,16,23,30).
No Monday dancing on January 19, Martin Luther King Day.
The Henry Ford Museum has free admission, free parking, and special events on this day.
Our friend, dancer, and musician, Tom Allen's memorial is this Saturday, JAN 10. 10:00 AM - 11:00 AM
Wm. Sullivan and Son Funeral Directors-Royal Oak - 705 W. Eleven Mile Road,48067
You donated thirty washcloths and fourteen pairs of gloves, many new, for Glovember.
Thank you for your generosity!!
Our drives are over, but all this year, Tom can accept any useful clothing items
that you no longer use. Jeans and t-shirts are always needed.
