“MASS Celebrated the Arrival of Spring at the April 4th Social”

The Elks Ballroom was adorned with colorful flowers and Easter decorations by Host Team members Brenda & Lew Sorresse, Jane & Charles Lafferty, Saundra Lee and Ann Herndon. Even though there were many other events in play for the weekend, 85 members (long time and new ones) turned out for a fun night of dancing to the excellent selection of tunes played by DJ Roy Childress.

The attendees included 51 Full Members, 1 Returning Full Member, 18 Associate Members and 17 New Associate Members. There were several new folks from South Carolina nearby towns including Cheraw, Bennettsville, Chesterfield and Lexington. We enjoyed meeting these new members and hope they return again soon. With the addition of all the new members, our club now has 146 Full Members and 97 Associate Members.

Remember, next month’s May 2 Social theme is “The Kentucky Derby,” complete with another “Hat Contest.” So ladies, you have a month to design the winning hat! At 7:00 we will re-vote for applying for Non-profit status choosing 501(c)7 format which more accurately describes the function of our organization than the 501(c)3 that was voted on earlier.

On Tuesday, April 14 a Fundraiser Team will meet at the Elks Club at 4:00 to begin planning for the September Fundraiser. If you want to be a part of this team, please come to this meeting.

Still Needed: Host Team for July 10 Social. If you haven’t served on a team this year, here’s your chance! Contact Connie Warren, or send an email to mooreshaggers@gmail.com, or call 910-585-7292.

Regretfully, Social 165 closed its doors last week. Those of us who went there to dance on Wednesday night will miss it. But, I am sure that another venue will provide mid-week dancing soon!

Thanks for being a part of the best shag club in the area! Until next time, Keep Shagging!!

Yvonne Jordan (Madam President)
