DANCE PARTY at Eastlake This Thursday January 30, 2020




Hello Dancers,  
 You are invited to a DANCE PARTY this Thursday January 30, 2020, at Eastlake Shores, 2050 Lakeshore Drive, Chula Vista. There'll be lots of dancing, fun, food, and beverages. It's a "private party" and this is your invitation.  Dancers are welcome to bring a dish of food to share. The fabulous DJ Bing Villafuerte will play for line dancing 6pm-7pm, and mixed ballroom & line dances until 10pm.

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.

Last Thursday (January 23rd) was a great CHINESE NEW YEAR DANCE PARTY at Eastlake.  Thanks in part to the return of Papa Nick and Eden, and others coming back after extended absences, there were about 30 dancers enjoying the music of DJ Bing Villafuerte, as you can see in the 5 photos below.

P.S. Other Notes: (1) These are really fun ballroom and line dance parties.  This is Thursday night dancing in San Diego.  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.
