Let's dance together (...while we can) 💃

As the cases increases in the east I am constantly reminded how lucky we are to be out and dancing and enjoying our beautiful state and this beautiful weather. But it also makes me think how quickly things can change and we may all get locked down again. So make the most of these days. Get out, get dancing and keep smiling. These are the strangest of times but seize each day and do what you love.

See you dancing

...which brings me to Wednesday... our Improvers class will start a little later at 10am this week as I have a book week parade to attend 😍 So get your coffee BEFORE class this week xx

***PLEASE NOTE***
IMPROVERS
WEDNESDAY AUGUST 25
CLASS WILL START AT 10AM (not the usual 9.30am)

The Absolute Beginner/ Beginner class will still run from 11am-12.30pm. I will set up the sign in register in the foyer because of the quick cross over.

NEW WEBSITE FEATURE
Ever forget what we danced as soon as you walk out of class? Have a song stuck in your head but can not remember the whole dance? Missed a class and want to check what you missed?
I have you covered. You can now check exactly what we have danced for the week on the Cherry Steppers website. Just click on your class and you will have access to the current dance list - includes dance name, the music and a link to a demo video. Try it out here!

The Pantry WA is a not-for-profit organisation 100% staffed by volunteers and they rely on donations. They provide food parcels to people in need in the northern suburbs and beyond, through the motto of Food, Grace and Hope. Two of our wonderful Cherry Steppers, Bec & Robbie, are volunteers at this amazing organisation and I thought we might be able to help. If you have the means to add an extra pasta packet or pasta sauce to your weekly shop that you could donate it would be greatly appreciated. I will have a box at class this week and next to collect any donations you may have. 🙏

The Pantry WA CFO, Phil Couper, had been involved with the organisation for several years before taking up his current volunteer role as CFO almost two years ago. Phil’s amazing work has been recognised as a Westfield Whitford City local hero FINALIST. What an incredible honour. If you would like to vote for Phil, and help The Pantry WA to win the $10,000 grant please click here
