Country Western Dance:
- Dance was held on Saturday Oct 13
- Final figures have not been calculated, but profit will be lower than expected due to Advertising costs (Sounder, Posters, Sandwich Board) and low wine and beer sales
- Set Up and Tear Down was accomplished quickly and easily as we had many volunteers
- Wine and beer sales were considerably less than at our last dance
- Steve gave 2 complimentary tickets to North Road Sports; 2 complimentary tickets to Gabriola Automotive as well as 2 to Derrick at the Sounder – North Road Sports and Gabriola Automotive were sales distribution channels
- Decoration for the dance were terrific:
- o Randy had access to some hay bales and brought those along
- o Gordie McDonald set up some corn stalks, milk jugs, 4-H Posters
- Good attendance, people had fun!
- Thanks to Flashback Freddie for once again providing great music
- Thanks to Kimm for the great line dancing lessons
-

Additional Thoughts
- o Bigger push to have members sell tickets instead of advertising
- o Would be nice if more Car Club people attended as it would be a social activity for members
- o Some feedback that people enjoyed the Sock Hop theme a bit more, although people attending the dance loved the C&W theme
Thanks to Club Volunteers for their help at the dance
- o Dan & Loreen
- o Lori & Warren

- o Andy
