Dance This Thursday (May 23) at Point Point

Hello Dancers,
  Here's your invitation to another joyously festive good time at this coming Thursday's Dance Party at Point Point; we hope you'll be there.  Today's paper predicts a high of 70 degrees on Thursday, so it's not too hot yet.  Non-stop dancing fun from 6-10pm - line dancing and ballroom swing, cha cha, night club 2-step, and much much more.  Once again Point Point offers their special price of $10 for 2-entree dinner plus drink for Thursday Night dancers.  
  DJ Mel kept about 40 dancers happily dancing during last week's dance party (on May 16th) at Point Point.  "Caballero" continued to be a much-liked line dance.  Here are some photo highlights (Note: If the following photos do not appear in this email, click the words at the top of this email that say something like "images have been blocked to protect your privacy" - I already know who you are):

A little after 8pm we had another line dance favorite, "Dahil Sa Iyo".  Here we see Lita and Edith dancing it.

Here we see Jose and Suzanne dancing a cha cha.

About 9pm I spotted Eva and DJ Dwayne dancing a tango.

This is your invitation to the Dance Party fun & frolic this Thursday Night (May 23rd), 6-10pm at Point Point, 916 East 8th Street, National City.  Enjoy swing (hustle), cha cha, tango, merengue and other ballroom dances, and of course line dances.

Dance This Thursday at Point Point - 'Hawaiian Night'

Hello Dancers,

  It will be "Hawaiian Night" for this Thursday's Dance Party at Point Point.  Details below.

  DJ Mel played for about 40 dancers last week's "Mexican Night" (on May 2nd, an early Cinco de Mayo dance party).  It was a little warm, a taste of warmer nights ahead. Highlights included costume prizes awarded to FOUR dancers, and a visit from Cindy inviting us to her birthday party this Tuesday (May 7th) at McDini's starting at 6pm.

  At the Thursday night dance party the week before, DJ Leo played for about 50 dancers, thanks to a large group from the South Bay Terraces Seniors Association who had come to celebrate out-going association secretary Virgie's birthday.   

  Anyway, the jovial dancers last Thursday night proclaimed that this coming Thursday will be "Hawaiian Night".  The weather forecast in today's paper predicts a cool 66 degrees for Thursday, so I'll play some lively music to keep you warm.  We'll have the same fun dances, and a costume is optional, but we plan to award the best costumed dancer a prize.  Point Point offers their special price of $10 for 2-entree dinner plus drink for Thursday Night dancers, and there'll be complimentary snacks.  

  Here are some photo highlights from the past two dance parties at Point Point (Note: If the following photos do not appear in this email, click the words at the top of this email that say something like "images have been blocked to protect your privacy" - I already know who you are):

First of all, the line dancers really loved "La Ultima Noche"  cha cha line dance.

A little later Eva and DJ Dwayne were having fun dancing to a swing medley.

Jumping ahead a week to May 2nd, "Mexican Night", I got an over-exposed picture of 3 of the 4 costume prize winner, with Judge Nita and on right side is DJ Mel.  The other winner, Peter, is another photo.

Here we see Cindy during her brief visit dancing a cumbia with Cisco.

Here we see Peter, the other costume prize winner, dancing a night club two-step, "Nikita", with Nedy.

Near the end of the night, I spotted Evelyn dancing a cha cha with Ping. 



This is your invitation to the Dance Party fun & frolic this Thursday Night (May 9th), 6-10pm at Point Point, 916 East 8th Street, National City.  Enjoy swing (hustle), cha cha, tango, merengue and other ballroom dances, and of course line dances.


It's a fun dance party most every Thursday night at Point Point.  Here's the plan for the next few weeks (while DJ Leo is in the Philippines):
Thursday  May  9th  6-10pm, Hawaiian Night, DJ Bert
Thursday  May  16th 6-10pm, DJ Mel
Thursday  May  23rd 6-10pm, DJ Bert
Thursday  May  30th 6-10pm, DJ Mel

Later:   
Thursday June 13th Filipino Night, DJ Mel
Thursday July 4th Filipino-American Friendship Night (or Red White & Blue Night)

'Hobo Night' This Thursday at Point Point

Hello Dancers,

  Another special Dance Party at Point Point this Thursday:  "Hobo Night".  Details below.

   Wow! The last two Thursdays have been probably the best two-in-a-row dance parties we've had at Point Point in over a year.  DJ Mel rocked the Joint March 7th, pointing out that the party we have is "DANCE-O-RAMA", sort of named after a well-known TV dance show in the Philippines popular in the 1960's.  Also, Bert Andrade treated us all to a large delicious mango cake.  Then, a week later for the St. Patrick's Dance Party on March 14th, DJ Leo enjoyed his 61st birthday party while DJ'ing, with a big cake of course - there were 50 dancers there, the perfect number for cozy Point Point.  It was a jubilant gang, thanks to Lumi and others who got many of their friends from places like the South Bay Terraces Seniors (aka Tooma Park dancers) to join the party.  There was lots of complimentary green food & drinks.  Now, for THIS week DJ Mel is planning some great stuff for this coming Thursday's HOBO NIGHT.  Things like prizes for the best Hobo. I'm calling him for more details.  I've been told that "Hobo Night" was a tradition back in some places in the Philippines.  Dancers would put on stylishly old clothes, maybe adding patches and things to look like.. dare I say it?.. stylish bums.  Some newer descriptions of "Hobo Night" say you just pay for what you can afford, but this Thursday Point Point will again offer us the special price: $10 for 2-entree dinner plus drink. Plus, there will be some complimentary snacks. 

  Here are some photo highlights from the past two dance parties at Point Point (Note: If the following photos do not appear in this email, click the words at the top of this email that say something like "images have been blocked" - I already know who you are):

First of all, we see DJ Mel on March 7th and the DANCE-O-RAMA podium.

Then, we had Nilda and Cisco dancing to a swing or hustle.

Later I spotted Hector enjoying a rumba dance with Evelyn.

And another highlight of the night, Dante showing dancers how to do the "Spanish Eyes" line dance. 

OK, here we begin highlights of the March 14th St. Patrick's Dance Party in Point Point.  First of all we see Nilda & Wally dancing - yes, the time on my camera is an hour behind. 

Here we see folks dancing to the "Wobble" around 8pm.

There were several local dance scene VIPs at Point Point March 14th, including Bert Andrade seen here dancing with DJ Lucibell, who must've been on her way to work at Gapo Restaurant.  Also, DJ Marie from the People's Church was at the dance.

About 8:30 we see Zeny & Ping enjoying a tango dance.

And, here we see Penny & Leo dancing Leo's 61st birthday dance.

There were a couple salsa dances, and Jessie and Rima danced to one.

This is your invitation to Hobo Night Dance Party fun & frolic this Thursday Night (March 21st), 6-10pm at Point Point, 916 East 8th Street, National City, featuring DJ Mel playing swing, cha cha, tango, merengue and other ballroom dances, and of course line dances.

But, NO DANCE ON THURSDAY MARCH 28th, in respect to Holy Thursday (Maundy Thursday).   

It's a fun dance party most every Thursday night at Point Point.  Here's the plan for the next few weeks:

Thursday March 21st 6-10pm, Hobo Night Dance Party featuring DJ Mel

Thursday March 28th - No dance - It's Holy Thursday (Maundy Thursday)

Thursday April 4th  6-10pm, DJ Leo

Thursday April 11th 6-10pm, DJ Mel

Thursday April 18th 6-10pm, Western Cowboy Night, DJ Bert

(The Early Birds start partying around 5:30pm.)

See you soon,

Bert & Edith
