CLOGGING SUELLEN GUEST
The Armidale Eights invite you to their 32nd spring festival for another exciting experience of dancing, fun and friendship.
There will be squares, rounds and clogging. Friday night and Saturday afternoon and evening dancing is at the University. First class facilities ensure a great atmosphere for dancing. Sound is excellent and the floor is beaut. And, of course, we have outstanding leaders. Supper is provided on both nights.
On Sunday morning we move to a local woolshed for more dancing and a BBQ lunch. This will be followed, at the woolshed, by a time for socializing & where we discover the musical talents of dancers, callers and cuers. Afternoon tea is provided.
We have made two changes to our weekend. Because of the increasing cost of the marquee we will not be having the Sunday wind down in the evening but will have it at the woolshed following the BBQ lunch. Following problems at the University Bistro there will not be a Saturday evening meal there.
The leaders will be Steve Turner and Mike Davey. This is our 32nd festival and we expect about 300 dancers will attend.
There is an entry we had in the Review that gives an overview of the program. There was also a registration form in the June Review or dancers can get one from our web page www.armidaleeights.net or from me

There are two good van parks in Armidale
Pembroke 02 6772 6470
Highlander 02 6772 4768
They are about 10 mins from the dance venue; nothing is very far from anywhere in Armidale.
Armidale is usually colourful in spring and there are quite a lot places of interest for tourists in Armidale and surrounding areas. The Visitors Information Centre 1800 627 736 www.armidaletourism.com
We hope some TAWS members can come along and enjoy the weekend.
