Attendance Up Last Week

Hello Dancers,  
   Attendance was up all last week, especially at Point Point, maybe to celebrate St. Patrick's Day.  "Locomotion" was a favorite.  More details below.    


TUESDAY NIGHT LINE DANCING - At the Point Point Joint line dancing this past Tuesday (March 15th) there were 17 line dancers, the most since early December.  First-timer Pressy joined us, and Lee, Nitz & Norma joined us again after many weeks. "Fly Me To The Moon" was practiced intensely, but there was less dancing this week while the ladies spent a half hour discussing "Fly Me To the Moon" (recorded by Scooter Lee), "Come Dance With Me" (record by Nancy Hays), "Choo Choo Train" (recorded by Tractors), and the only non-country new line dance of the 4, "Under The Sun" (recorded by Tim Tim).  When they learn the first 3, they can join the country line dancers at In Cahoots. Anyway, the dancers also did nine other line dances.        
    The Baguio Dinner-Dance is just 6 days away (Saturday, March 26th), and Edith has tickets that she would like you to get. (reference:  Upcoming Events)  
   THIS COMING TUESDAY (March 22nd) you can join the fun at Point Point, 916 E. 8th Street, National City, 6:30-9:00, when Nina will again lead us through fun line dances.  $5.
   
WEDNESDAY FILIPINO NIGHT at Lucky Star Restaurant on March 16th was enjoyed by a nice crowd of about 30 dancers, plus about 20 diners.  Once again, we guys were kept busy dancing with the ladies.  Most dances had close to 20 dancers on the floor, and a salsa apparently called "Morena Coo Coo" had 22.  So did one of the few line dances, "Todo Todo Todo".                
   "Filipino Night" once again will be this coming Wednesday March 23rd with DJ Eric at the LUCKY STAR RESTAURANT, 54th Street & University Avenue, San Diego. 6:30-9:30PM.  $6 plus one drink minimum.  


THURSDAY NIGHT DANCING AT POINT POINT again featured Cindy and Chito giving  a FREE West Coast Swing lesson 6:30-7:30 (March 17th).  I was AWOL, so Edith filled me in.  She said the place was packed with about 50 dancers, and DJ Leo played a mixture of ballroom and line dances.  Reportedly, "Locomotion" line dance again packed the floor with nearly 40 dancing.  Celebrating St. Patrick's Day, many folks had green clothing.          
  This coming Thursday March 24th, we hope to dance again at Point Point, 916 E. 8th Street, National City.  Party dancing:  6:30-10 PM.  The only admission cost is $10 which gets you a 2-entree buffet dinner, 2 soft drinks, and all the dancing you can handle.   


TITA'S II?  It reportedly did not meet its March 17th opening date.  So, I don't know the opening date.    


PHOTOS:  
  First of all, from Wednesday March 16th's Filipino Night at Lucky Star, we see Josie and Joe enjoying a disco swing dance.   

  Then, at Point Point Thursday night, March 17th, we see Nitz dancing with Tony.
