President’s Column
Outgoing President’s
Letter:
Welcome your Club’s
Officers for 2015: Millie
Mills will be your
President; she also is a
past President. Darrel Trexler will serve as Vice
President; he has previous Board experience. Carol
Kussmann will continue as Secretary and Diane Rice
will continue as Treasurer. The full Board of Directors
consists of these four Officers and Art Lang, Freda
Hutcheson, Ben Davis and Barbara Fox-Schmidlin. All
are highly qualified, dedicated, long standing and
respected members of the club. I am confident your
club is in very competent hands.
to work with during the past six years. Pat Ralston
skillfully edits this newsletter, Mary Sue Delauter
sends timely and informative weekly emails.
Dennis Dworski and helpers, Bill Fisher, Dave
Berard and Ed Schmidlin play and select the
intermission and mixer music. Helen Hurley,
Margaret Langley, Phyllis Westlake and helpers
who organize the snack and food nights. The
many volunteer instructors who taught in the small
ballroom. The entertainers under the supervision
of Myrna Sommers. And the many members who
stepped up to help when they saw a need. This list
is certain to be incomplete and oversights are
unintentional. Again, Thanks for your help; It has
been a memorable experience.
Enjoy your dances,
But before I hand over the gavel to Millie, I would like
to extend a very deep and heart-felt ‘Thank You” to
the Board Members and volunteers I have been blessed
Bill Stahl, President

Dance Instruction – January
From our Dance Instructor Chairman Freda Hutcheson
This January the dance lesson
for our experienced dancers is
the Belero. The instructor for
the first week in January is
Kathleen Ilo and the rest of the
month John Berry will teach.
(No photo available.)
The dance lesson in the small ballroom is
free with paid admission to the dance. Our
members volunteer because of their love
for dancing.
We would like to thank Ron Fields, our dance
instructor for last month, for teaching the Waltz to
our members. Thanks also to Dave and Sue Berard
for teaching the Samba lessons last month.
The beginner's ballroom dance lesson will be taught
by CDC members Jim and Katie Kessler. They
will be teaching Rumba.
Both beginning and intermediate dance lessons are available only WITH paid admission to the dance.
Please, no video taping of the lessons.
THANKS TO ALL OUR ADVERTISERS
