From the Editor’s Desk

Welcome to the ABA news, communicating with and supporting the member clubs of the American Bop Association. This newsletter is your forum for discussing ABA events, activities, policies, business, the how and why we did that, and just plain old fashioned “pass the word” concerning the ABA and your club.

This quarter’s newsletter, although slow in coming, shows ABA clubs are very active. There are articles describing experiences on the ABA Cruise, large event parties, special dances, participation in parades, and promoting dance on TV. Seattle came through again with a great article on improving your level of dance and the N.A.R.B. Dee Jays Association provide two article on music.

Remember to thank your club officers, volunteers, and the people in your organization that make it work. Without them, there would not be the great music and a places to dance, which we have all come to enjoy. Support your club and its events so others might experience the pure joy of dancing and the fellowship that comes with it.

As Butch Berry from the JBBA would say, our dance community is one big family. Each of you contributes to that warm, wonderful feeling. Thank-you.
