I certainly hope you are well and staying safe during this unprecedented time of "safer at home" and social distancing to prevent spread of the coronavirus. It has been rough not to be able to jump in the car to run errands, meet up with friends or go dancing! But this to shall pass and we will get back to our regular lives in time and even back to dancing.....
ON HOLD - At this point, as we look ahead at our schedule for our SBDC dances - let's see what the summer brings and what the timing & plans are to open up California. As of now, we consider the SBDC dances to be on hold until further notice. We will keep you posted.
SPRING BALL - Spring Ball ticket refunds will be issued shortly. The records and forms regarding the Ball reservations are locked up at the Masonic Lodge. Our Vice President, Linda Corvan will be making a trip to the Hall to retrieve the list and forms needed to begin this process. As we do not have everyone's address, please be on the look out for an email or phone call from us as we gather necessary information to mail checks.
MEMBERSHIP SUGGESTIONS? - Many of you joined or renewed your membership in February and March! Special thank you to those who joined or renewed - memberships show your great support of the Club! On that note, we want to let you know the Board is going to address these funds soon. At this point, we'd love to hear from you with suggestions & ideas regarding recently paid membership dues given that our dances are on hold. (email: info@southbaydanceclub.org)
STAY CONNECTED - The invitation is still open for you to join us on Enclayve - a private social media that we can all join, communicate and share. (More info on www.enclayve.com). This is a private social network - truly private, no ads, no tracking, nothing fake. Very different in those respects from Facebook, and even easier to use! You need to have an apple or android phone or tablet. Several of us have joined thru Enclayve and I hope you will consider it! I'm hoping we can catch up, post pics and videos, and stay in touch through all this! We can accommodate all of our dancers who'd like to join! Email me at my personal email mchura5678@aol.com and I'll respond to you with an invite (password). Please include your first and last name.
And finally, I'm providing a link to a video of the performance by Michael Swatek & Alina Artemova at our Spring Ball 2019. Beautiful performance! Video created by Nathalie Cohen. I really enjoyed re-watching it so much - I hope you do as well!
Alina Artemova & Michael Swatek: International Standard Ballroom of the Waltz and the Tango.
