From the 2024 President, Jack Witzenfeld
Spring is right around the corner and Daylight Savings Time is a week and a half away. I must admit, our winter has been mild, and the absence of snow has been good.
Our membership renewal campaign has been in full swing during the first two months of this year and we’re fortunate to not only have so many of our members renew but we’ve gained quite a few new members too. The latter has been a direct result of teaching the beginner basic classes both at the Kempsville Recreation Center and at the club.
For those going to SOS, we have 14 members that have signed up to be in the SOS parade representing our club. If you would like to join us – please let me know ASAP. Lynn and I have not been in the parade before and are looking forward to it.
Our first General Membership Meeting of 2024 will be held Monday, 3/4 at DanceSportVA. Time is 6:30 pm. All are encouraged to participate and attend. The two “hot topics” on the agenda are the 2024 Budget and whether the VBSC would like to host the 2025 or 2026 ACSC Summer Meeting.
Our attendance numbers at our weekly Mix & Mingle dances are increasing and for that, I’m pleased. The support at our weekly dances is the number one way we can generate income to keep the club alive and vibrant.
Finally, Save The Date – our annual Christmas party has been booked at the DoubleTree by Hilton and will be held on Saturday, December 14th. Wayne Tate was able to get The Main Event Band to come up from Carolina and play for us that evening. They are one of the top beach bands and we are fortunate to have them!
