Subject: Thanks and Wishes

From: Me

I wanted to wish everyone a wonderful Christmas, as well as warm wishes for our friends who celebrate in many different ways. I look forward to seeing old friends and meeting new ones in the new year and keeping in touch with all of you through the email newsletter and The World Line Dance Newsletter Facebook Group. I know I don’t get to meet all of you in person but I know you through your little notes and posts over many years and I hope many years to come.  I wish you good health, good fortune, good luck, and lots of dancing all over the world. A special wish goes to those who have lost loved ones this past year because the holidays are very difficult so keep them in your thoughts and care. Thanks for always being there for each other and for playing nicely as the Facebook Group has grown beyond what I thought was possible.  A big thanks to Stacy Garcia for keeping the website informative and allowing all of us to know where to go to find out where to dance or what event to choose next and what dances are being done around the world.
