NO, not for some football. The BIG
Dance - Vacation - A Date with a Duck - The
Granddaddy of dances. . . Call it what you
will, but around these parts we are ready
for “Bop on the Lake 2008”! The hottest dance
event held every September in downtown Hot
Springs, Arkansas.
Many
mark their calendars way in advance, to not miss
out on (what I like to call) one of the
best three day dance parties in America. This
year is expected to prove no different. (And
no, I am not bias at all!)
Our event will be jam packed. Team Joe returns
this year after new babies were added to their
nest. Newcomers, Richard Britt and Jeannette
Jeffries, will be showing their stuff. Let’s not
forget our two local favorites, the Stantons &
the Nelsons, will be back again to show off some
Little Rock talent. But it doesn’t end there. We
have some new DJ’s in town, bringin’ their style
& tunes to share with us. Want more? The LRBC
“Little Theatre” is back this year with a skit
guaranteed to make your sides split! More?? Two
great meals along with plenty to do in downtown
Hot Springs.
As of this
writing, BOTL is a little over 3 weeks away, and
we are looking for volunteers. This event is way
too large for just a few people to cover. Help
support your club by signing up for T-shirt
sales, split the pot, or hospitality. Anything
you volunteer for will not take more than one
hour of your time. The Sign Up sheet will
be at the front table every Wednesday night.
You will find, as many have, that helping is a
lot of fun, and you get to know your fellow
boppers better!
Summer has
been fun, but as always, too short. The great
news is fall brings on a whole new beautifully
colored world, and our club's dance event.
Fall shows its best at Hot Springs with the
national forest as a beautiful backdrop.
Another year of great memories waits. . . .
Arthur Hughes,
President, LRBC
