A Square Dance Valentine
A square dance friend is like a flower,
a rose to be exact,
or maybe like a brand new gate,
that never comes unlatched.
A square dance friend is like an owl,
both beautiful and wise,
or maybe a square dance friend is like a ghost, whose spirit never dies.
A square dance friend is like a heart that beats strong until the end.
Where would we be in this world,
if we didn't have our square dance friends.

Project Quinte Twirlers....
This past week we welcomed Loyalist College Photojournalism student Melissa out to our dance. She spent a good amount of time taking pictures of the crowd in action for one of her assignments.
Word has spread and we are a HOT subject, more students have shown an interest and not just from Loyalist. This is awesome, we get to help out an upcoming photographer and they give us a bit of publicity. Besides, we love to have company at our dances... we are such a friendly bunch.
On another note.... Thank you to all who have responded to the survey regarding the new hall. We do have a few members who have issues with the hall, whether it be health related or other. However, the executive have met and made the following observations:
Due to the high cost of the Thurlow Community Center, (Harmony Rd.) it is not feesible to return. However, we have booked it for our Apple Blossom, as it is a well known location.
We are going to stay put for the time being as this hall is a great price. We have approached our landlord with the issues that were brought forth by members.
We will keep our eyes open for a new location. However, we won't be moving further west, but would like to stay as close to the 401 as possible. The only suggestions of halls provided were the Fosterward Community Center and St. Joseph's Church, both in Belleville. We are also looking again at schools.
For the most part a kitchen is not necessary. It only serves a purpose twice a year when we have catered meals. As it stands right now, we do not have use of the kitchen, it is an extra charge on those occassions.
We are not willing to raise our fees at this time, so admission remains at $6.00.
Thank you again everyone for taking the time to provide us with feedback on the hall.
