Look what our 2007 participants had to say: Simone,
Thanks for making us
feel right at home and always like we’re special! You know my head was
absolutely spinning after Friday but it did start making more sense after
I saw it in classes on Saturday. I hate we had to leave early! I loved it
up there in Fontana! I’ve never been there before. Thanks again for all
you do! We’ll be getting with you in the next few weeks about coming to
the studio!
Love ya, Stacy ___________________________________________ Hi!
This is Lauren Ann Finley (Sharon's daughter). First of all, I would like to congratulate you and Bill on an amazing weekend. I and my team had tons of fun and think that it was an excellent opportunity to dance and learn from the clogging community. We had a blast!
Thanks a bunch,
Lauren Ann Finley _______________________________________Simone,
I just wanted to email you and let you know what a great time I had at this years workshop. The instructors/judges training seminar was AWESOME!!! I learned so much from the GREATS!! I believe now more than ever in preserving our heritage and it's upsetting to realize so many people are trying to do away with traditional clogging. Bill, Garland, Lib, Audrey & Ellis were wonderful and it was an honor to be taught by them and listen to all their stories. And of course you were great as always! Thanks for the experience!
Your dad has offered to come to the studio and teach and we will take him up on his offer. I just hope he realizes what he's gotten himself into.(HA!).
My goal is to add a 4 or more couple precision dance and a traditional line dance for the teams this year. Hopefully I can make this happen.
Thanks again! Love ya, Michelle Evett
