HOW DO YOU ROCK THE BOAT?

From facing lines, as in the standard set-up for Load the Boat:
Ends do their part of Load the Boat, while the centers, in a continuous flowing motion, do a Single Circle To an Ocean Wave, then Fan the Top, then Extend. The call ends in parallel Ocean Waves.

It’s that time of year again – time to renew your membership in Foggy City Dancers! 2011 was a year of transition as we took on Advanced for the first time! Square Dancing is on the move, and Foggy City is a big part of it’s future!

We held all sorts of events last year, from four successful dances, to our Pride Beer Booth, or that summertime favorite, the FCD Picnic, to some fun open house events, potlucks, raffles, and squaroling (still to come in Dec)! Foggy City Dancers is once again having a successful Advanced class with several squares of students and angels.

So, why do you want to renew?

  • Well, there’s the dancing – from our main club caller, Harlan Kerr, to our guest callers, Foggy City Dancers is hosting a wealth of fun and interesting callers this year.

  • FOUR Dances in 2012! Many produced jointly with Western Star Dancers

  • More fun, social events planned – We’re going to be doing some more guerrilla dance events, do some more potlucks and parties, more community outreach.

  • FUN, FUN, FUN!
