PREVIOUS EVENTS

End of term party night

This took place at St Wilfrid’s church hall on Wednesday 14th May to the marvellous music of Ian Slater. The programme had been chosen by Carol from dances danced during the term. This meant that one walk through was all that was required. The faith supper consisted of some savoury items and an array of slimming cakes, meringues and all manner of home baking. It was well received. If you left a dish there, Valerie is looking after it.

Carol presented Betty with a token of the club’s appreciation for all her hard work and forbearance over the term and all looked forward to resuming on 10th September.

Spring dance 2025

This took place on 5th April at Scotton Village Hall. Robert Whitehead and Alan provided the music. The programme. [for the record]

Burns Night 2025

We hold a Ceilidh every year on the Saturday nearest to 25th January. Happily, Burns Night this year fell on the 25th and we danced in the Hampsthwaite Memorial Hall for the first time and found that it suited us very well. In fact, it was just the ticket. Ian Slater played for us; Betty chose the dances; Alison ran the kitchen with her usual efficiency; Graham, assisted by Ian and Oliver, addressed the haggis and 70 dancers had a very good evening.
