Bush Dance for Burnie Shines
Posted: Mon 28 Sep, 2009 11:08 pmShameless plug alert...
My alter ego is calling a Bush Dance at Burnie High School this Thursday night, 1st October between 7pm and 9pm for Leighlands Christian School. Everyone is welcome and the event will only set you back $5 per person, couple or family. Don't be put off that it's being hosted by a school. My job is much easier if I have plenty of grown-up dancers to have a crack at favourites such as Strip the Willow, Gallopede, Heel-and-Toe Polka, Waves of Tory, etc. If I only get primary school kids, I will be stuck doing the Hokey Pokey and the Chicken Dance all night! Please come!!!!
There is a good chance that people who enjoy bush walking will also enjoy bush dancing. I certainly do.
P.S. Out-of-towners may wonder why there's a dance on a Thursday night. It's due to it being Burnie Show Day Eve so the following day's a public holiday in those parts. Thursday is also the first official day of the Burnie Shines celebration.
