INTERNATIONAL LINEDANCE FLASHMOB
The Mercury Bay Linedancing Club is entering into the spirit of this International event - the International Linedance Flashmob. I’m going up there to participate. Wanna join me … it’ll be fun! They’ll be doing the 3 dances chosen Hoedown by Gary O’Reilly (that you know), Heel Toe Rodeo by Gary O’Reilly (I haven’t taught this as it is a bit tricky but you could practice) and a new one Everybody Dance by Sascha Wolf & Ben Murphy which is nice and easy. I’ll teach it this week.
Date: Saturday 2nd May 2026
Time: 11.30am
Location: Whitianga Square - meet outside Mainly Casual. Then across to Smittys for lunch.
boots & Baubles
We’re cooking up something a little special for midwinter… and this one is for you!
Boots & Baubles will be our very first Salty Steppers social - a Christmas-inspired line dance gathering with a touch of sparkle and a whole lot of fun.
This is your social, and I really hope you can be part of it. There’ll be plenty of dances you know and love, along with that great Salty Steppers atmosphere we’ve built together.
The venue is something pretty special too, and a big thank you to Jenny Reid and Katie Hill for so generously offering Stonewood Farm Barn to us.
The cost will be $10 and bring a plate to share. As it is in a barn, pack a picnic with your drinks, cutlery and crockery (if needed).
So start polishing those boots, dig out a bit of tinsel, and get ready for a cosy midwinter afternoon of music, laughter, and festive cheer (with a country twist, of course!). All enquries donna@saltysteppers.co.nz.
Date: 21st June 2026
Time: 2pm-7pm
Cost: $10
Location: Stonewood Farm Barn, Spur Road, Hikuai
