LINE DANCING: Spring was definitely in bloom at Maureen and Michelle's Flower Power Social, held recently at The Peace Memorial Hall. Flowers blossomed across the dance floor as dancers joined in the fun, together with garlands, floral hair decorations and a fantastic variety of floral clothing. The abundance of flowers added to the light-hearted enthusiasm and enjoyment, and there wasn't a face without a smile or a dancer who wasn't keen to dance. A Flower Power quiz with a floral solution (of course), ensured that many line dancers also went home with prizes. There's no doubt about it, The Girls' flower filled social brought the scent of spring into the air and provided dancers with a blooming gorgeous evening of line dancing.
