A DANCE PARTY was at Eastlake this past Thursday, April 25th, with DJ Bing Villafuerte, on a mild and dry night.  There were almost 60 in attendance, thanks in part to 3 first-timers, and visiting V.I.P. dancers Bert and Lennie Velasco.  At one point Bert Velasco taught a foxtrot line dance to the dancers. Here are 6 photos from last Thursday's Dance Party.  Most were copied from earlier Facebook posts:

 


  LADIES BY EASTLAKE.  Early birds Valerie, Alice, Janet, Edith and Nora posed lakeside in the photo above, before the dance started.

 

 


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

 

 


  LINE DANCING was non-stop from 6pm to 7pm, and after the blessing for about 20 minutes, until ballroom and line dancing alternated until the end of the party.  This photo was about 7:15 and was probably "It's My Soul" ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XlQyXUoLe80 ).

 

 


  "THE RING GIRLS", an all-V.I.P. line up, were holding the signs with the schedule for upcoming Eastlake dances. We see Angie, Florita, Lennie, and first-timer Regina.

 

 


  SPECIAL PERFORMANCE.  "The Eastlake Dancers" performed a special cowboy line dance called "Cowboy Style"  ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wk7jQo8B-7E ).  They were Lolit, Irish and Valerie in front, followed by Merely and Liz, with Eva, Roland (hidden) and Mary Jane in back.

 

 


 BALLROOM DANCING was in abundance. Faye and John danced in Nedy's selfie photo above.  It looks like it was a swing dance.

  JUDGE EDITH was happy with her fancy animal print attire, but since she was a judge, she could not win a prize.

 

 


  WINNING COUPLES in Animal Prints attire posed in the photo above, and they vied for prizes. The winning couples were Elaine & John, Roland & Irish, Connie & Ric (who took this photo), Merely & Willy, Remy & Chris, and Ditas & Ver.  John was wearing a shirt with birds of paradise flower design, but the judge qualified his birds of paradise as an animal print. 

 

 


 WINNING SINGLES in animal prints posed for the photo above. There were about 30 winners, the most ever on a Thursday night contest night, and too many to name.  Josie also donated prizes, and Josie and Lydia handed prizes to the prize winners.

A BIRTHDAY CELEBRATION was held for 10 April celebrants, surrounded by lots of photographers, so a clear photo of all 10 was impossible.  In any case, the 10 celebrants were Myrna, May, Fred, Mark, Ping (hidden), Ver (hidden), Karina, Angie, Yolanda and DJ Bing.
