CHINESE NEW YEAR DANCE PARTY at Eastlake Thursday January 19, 2023

Hello Dancers,  

   You are invited to a CHINESE NEW YEAR DANCE PARTY this Thursday January 19, 2023, at Eastlake Shores, 2050 Lakeshore Drive, Chula Vista. There'll be lots of dancing, fun, food, beverages, and prizes for the best Chinese attire. It's a "private party" and this is your invitation.  Dancers are welcome to bring a dish of food to share.  The wonderful DJ Nickie Bascos will play for line dancing 6pm-7pm, and mixed ballroom & line dances until 10pm.  Cloudy cool weather is forecast.

  MASKS required?  Well, the homeowners association still has a "masks recommended" sign on the door.  In order to have a healthy dance, please do not come in if you have a fever, a bad cough, or other serious cold or flu symptoms.  Anyone can wear a mask who chooses. Everyone should bring a mask, just in case the requirements change at the last minute.

DIRECTIONS: Take H Street east to Eastlake Drive.  Go right one block, then turn right onto Lakeshore Drive. Then, turn left immediately into the parking lot of 2050 Lakeshore Drive.  The Eastlake Shores Clubhouse is behind the gated fence.

THE JANUARY BIRTHDAYS NIGHT DANCE PARTY was at Eastlake last Thursday, January 12th, with DJ Nickie Bascos, on a nice-weather night.  There were 55 dancers, thanks in part to 8 first-timers.  Here are some photos from the Facebooks, where you can see almost 200 nice photos:

 

 

 

 BEFORE EATING, dancers posed for the photo above. Nedy gave a blessing for the food, and thankfulness for bringing us all together.

 

 

 

 LINE DANCING was non-stop from 6 to 7pm, and off and on until 10PM.  In Nedy's selfie above, with Juliet and May dancing closest, people were line dancing.

 

 

 

 JANNETTE IN RED, in the photo above, was one of the lovely birthday celebrants who wore red dresses.

 

 

 

 THE BIRTHDAY CAKE was graciously baked and provided by Myra (Veronica), and it was delicious.

 

 

 BIRTHDAY CELEBRANTS in the photo above gathered joyously in their red attire to sing and blow out the cake's candles.  They were Melba, Josie, Nora, Huda, Connie and Jannette in front.  Mel Paiste was behind Josie, and Ruben peeked over Connie.

 

 

 

 BALLROOM DANCING was frequent, too.  In the photo above, Mona was dancing with Joe, possibly to a cumbia.

P.S. Other Notes: (1) These are really fun ballroom and line dance parties.  This is Thursday night ballroom and line dancing in San Diego. This is the best Thursday night swing dance in San Diego, with many other types of dance. While the dancing and music are non-stop, there are dancers who are happy to give free dance one-on-one lessons during the dances, in case you don't know the steps of a particular dance.
