Hey y'all,

Get your parties listed on the ACSC website www.shagdance.com. It's free, & it will help promote your parties.

Also get your website posted with your club information on the ACSC website. That's the first place shaggers go to find out if anything is going on with your club. You wouldn't believe how many visitors we've had to our shag club because of our website.

If y'all can't come down for the MESS party on Mar 28th, I'll see you in Bluefield on April 4th. Check out www.messdance.com for info about our March party

We attended your party in November and had such a wonderful time. We live in South Georgia (Brunswick) and have a 2nd home in Kingsport TN. Member of the MESS club. We had a great time visiting with your club. In fact one of your instructors T. K. (and Mary) dropped me while learning a fun step that My husband and I were doing. We told everyone at MESS that they missed a great party and hope they can come next time.

--- Posted by patty on 10-06-2008

It's great to find there's a shag club in Bluefield, I lived in the McDowell-Mercer County area until 1963. Carolyn (my wife) and I have been shagging for years, and are members of the Danville, VA. club, my knees have slowed me quite a bit, but we still enjoy attending the different functions and the music. You have a great website, hope to CU SHAGN, Richard & Carolyn Adams

Our shag club, Lake Norman, is having a meeting tonight and I have printed some of your flyers to pass out to our membership in hopes that some of them will come to the Boogie Blast also. We are looking forward to meeting your members and having a shagging good time with them...............T.K. and Mary

I particularly liked the following quote by Art Mead since it clearly applies to me: "We strive for pleasure, not perfection."
Also, I genuinely appreciate all the assistance provided by the skilled members to those of us who are relatively new and lacking in Shag experience. Thanks!

--- Posted by Roger Earnest on 09-01-2008

I HAVE REALLY ENJOYED LEARNING TO SHAG. EVERYONE IS SO HELPFUL AND PATIENT WITH ME.

--- Posted by maria farris on 08-19-2008
