This sounds great, depening on what were the dancers wearing.

	    Just wanted to pass along the information in the e-mail
below.  What a unique promotion of square dancing.  As we understand it
this same show will continue until Christmas at various locations around
the Midwest (Mankato, MN; Denver, CO;  Rapid City, SD; Bismarck, ND;
Fargo, ND; Sioux City, IA; Omaha, NE; Des Moines, IA; Milwaukee, WI) to
name a few.  As far as we know this same square dance routine will be
included in all of those shows.

	Thanks to Bob and Velma Wolff,  thirty-six Westonka Whirlers saw
an incredible endorsement and promotion of square dancing this
afternoon!  Where?  Lorie Line and her Pop Chamber Orchestra presented
her 2005 Holiday Extravaganza at the State Theater in Minneapolis.  What
a show!  For two-and-a-half hours, the sold-out theater clapped,
cheered, and rang bells as Lorie presented her theme this year:  "My
Favorite Things."

	Near the end of the first half, Lorie formed a square and they
squared danced to a Christmas tune!  Yes, they actually did a square
dance with Tim, her husband and narrator of the show, calling the dance
as well as calling the dancers the Westonka Whirlers!  When he called
"teacup chain," we broke into cheers!   The performers on stage knew the
"real"  Westonka Whirlers were there! 

	

	How did they learn to square dance?

	On the back of the program, Lori listed a special thanks "To the
real Westonka Whirlers who taught us how to square dance one beautiful
fall morning.  That was a very memorable day."

	In actuality, it wasn't the Whirlers who taught them how to
dance--it was Dick Rueter.  The Whirlers provided a square so he could
work out a routine for them and have some dancers to perform his
choreography at Lorie's dance studio and then be "angels" for them.  We
had a ball!


	And now 47 audiences will see an example of square dancing that
is professionally done and looks like so much FUN!
