Subject: Post Holiday Potluck Social in Sarasota, FL
From: John Dembiec
 
Here's your playlist for this Saturday's Post Holiday Potluck at Sara Dance Center from 12-5PM in Sarasota, FL. If you're in the area, please come by. $15 a person.
 
Since we are going to eat at 12:30, I have additional songs leading up to the true playlist. These are: Glass Of Wine, A Bar Song, Lonely Drum, Champagne Promise, & American Kids.
The * denotes that these dances were requested by several people.
 
If you'd like to join in from afar, I will have Zoom available if you like. E-mail at linedanc...@gmail.com for payment info.
 
This will be tight to get them all in, so remember we need at least 3 people dancing to a dance or I will fade out after the 1st chorus.
 
On that note: PRACTICE, PRACTICE, PRACTICE

How to Vote in the Weekly Survey

List up to 8 of your favorites with choreographer and level if you know it and email to me at tka...@aol.com before 6:30 PM EDT on Sunday. Please add the choreographer and level of the dance if you know it.   

Reminder from Carol

Please do not number the votes 1-8, send me extra things, or put the name on one line and the other information on another line, it saves me time because I have to erase all extra things and spacing and formatting before I can sort. Thanks, as always, for your votes. Classes, socials, and events are starting again and we NEED to know what dances most people will know or want to know so your vote is important.
