August BBQ Update

by

Unfortunately, due to the current fire bans in parks, we’ve had to ramp down our member’s appreciation BBQ to a pizza party.

The good news: the pizza party is free to members and $5 to non-members! Come out at 4:30PM Saturday, August 18th, at Central Park in Burnaby, and meet some of the other BCSDC members.

Same time, same place, just different food.

We are in picnic area 1 below:

September Dance

…. And we’re back (in September)!

After a summer of relaxing, we’ve got a full fall schedule planned, starting with an edition of our monthly dance on Saturday, September 15th. Pamela Podmoroff will be teaching a nightclub 2-step lesson and Amy and Michael Shibasaki will be teaching the beginner lesson. All of this is followed by a social dance.

Please note: This dance will be starting one hour earlier and ending one hour earlier:

  • Doors at 6:30PM
  • Lessons from 7 to 8PM
  • Dance from 8 – 11PM

See you there!

Annual Member BBQ

by

Prepare your appetite!

The annual BC Swing Dance Club summer BBQ will be held on August 18th, from 4:30 to sundown, at the Central Park Picnic Area. This is in the northwestern area of the park, near Swangard Stadium, and is accessible by Skytrain, bus, or car. See here for a map of the area: https://www.burnaby.ca/Assets/things+to+do/explore+outdoors/picnic+sites/Central+Park+Picnic+Map.pdf

Last year we tried out Vera’s Burgers as a catering option and heard nothing but good feedback, so we are bringing them back. Like last year, we will be charging $5.00 for all Swing Dance Club members, $15.00 for guests and non-members, and $5.00 for kids 14 and under. This fee will help us pay for the caterer, the park reservations, and other refreshments.

The burgers will be all-you-can-eat and will include vegetarian options. Come get to know other BC Swing Dance Club members better!

If you are thinking of coming, please reply to our E-Vite so we can track numbers and make sure we have enough food: http://evite.me/S58Yt6qHKT
