Welcome to Jaybee Square Wheelers Square Dance Club.
Caller – Mike Davey
Cuer – Pat Saunder
Trainee Callers – Laurina Collyer and Emily Fry
Upcoming Events:
Tuesday January 24 (8pm) - Australia Day Dance. Dress to the theme and don’t forget to bring a plate for supper – yes, vegemite sandwiches are very acceptable, just not too many lamingtons!
Sunday 29 January – 4 Gen Dance. 2:00PM – 6:00PM Oakleigh Hall, 142-144 Drummond Street, Oakleigh. Yes, it is on once again. Four generations of Callers working together to provide an afternoon of square dancing entertainment.
Tony Hooper – the old man of square dancing. He has run clubs in South Australia, Tasmania, Queensland and now in Victoria – he has lost count of the number of people he has taught to dance in his time.
Mike Davey – The Baby Boomer. Mike has been Calling since he was a teenager. He figures that practice makes perfect, so he has to keep practicing (one day he will get it right!).
Philip Aslanidis – The Gen X member of the team. For once, Philip is not the youngest person on the program, a novel experience for him, I am sure. Philip has a wonderful voice and is a talented caller.
Adrian Weise – The Gen Y member and our only Cuer in the team. Adrian has been dancing since before he could walk and his timing with the cueing is faultless.

Saturday 4 February 2012 – Family and Friends Dance. Commencing at 7.30 pm at Nottinghill Hall, 386 Ferntree Gully Road, Nottinghill. $10.00 per adult, 18 and under $5.00. Families $25.00. BYO Drinks and nibbles. Everyone welcome! If you have never tried Square Dancing before, then come along, meet new people (we are mostly friendly!!) and get some painless exercise for mind and body, while laughing at the antics of the Caller and the others in the square!
This is the moment some of our dancers have been waiting for! Yes, it is our chance to drag others (maybe even kicking and screaming) to share our activity with us. This is usually a very popular night as children, siblings, partners, neighbours, work colleagues, friends, and even total strangers, get dragged along to try square dancing. We teach them the basics, show them how we do it, encourage them to try and we guarantee that most of them will love it and will want to join the Learners Class …..
Thursday 9 February – Learners First Night. This commences at 7.00pm at the Girl Guide Hall, Bogong Reserve, Bogong Avenue, Glen Waverley (Melway 71 A3). the cost is $8.00 per adult, 18 and under $4.00. It’s a lot of fun – call Mike Davey on 9590 0550 for more details.
