The Golden Eagles Linedance Club Andover

On Saturday 15th July 2023 we went to the Sargeant's Mess at Bulford Camp for their Summer Ball which was a western themed event. After being met at the gate and escorted to the Sargeant's Mess, and treated to drinks, we set up the sound equipment ready to get started (just after 6.00). A group of enthusiastic people joined us on the dance floor dressed in cowboy style clothes. I must say they really got involved in the dancing (I am not sure if it was helped by the bar being so close and had been open since 3 o'clock). Debbie did have a problem as she stood just in front of the bar to do the class, and guests still wanted to use the bar. As usual, Debbie taught the dances with Jean and Laura stood to the side to show the steps as they moved around, Ian played the music (though as they were packing up he played very tongue in cheek I Hate You When You're Drunk by Olly Murs). All too soon our time was up and it was time for the BBQ. After the meal they had a country band to play for them and try to remember all the moves they had been taught I must say all the people we came into contact with were a credit to our Armed Forces.

As usual a donation was paid to Andover Neighbourcare, our local charity.

Many thanks to Andover Dawn Breakers for another donation of £127. This makes a total of £1270 received since January 2023.

Your support is very much appreciated and will be used to assist in delivering our services. Neighbourcare is completely self funding and your donation help with all the charities activities.
