CAROLINA SHAG CLUB
“For The Love Of Shag”
January 2015
The Annual CSC Board meeting will be held on January 13, 2015 at 6:45 pm at
The Phoenix. All members are welcome to attend.
A note from Dot:
Dear Members,
Happy New Year to everyone! I hope all of you had a safe and happy
holiday…now it’s time to start planning for another great year at the Carolina
Shag Club! First, I want to thank the 2014 board and committee members for the
tremendous job they did last year. I am very thankful that most of the committee
members from last year will remain this year…if it ain’t broken, don’t fix it. I am
also very thankful for the support we have from our members.
This year we are planning a Jack and Jill dance contest. This should be a lot of
fun and we hope will get members dancing with new partners. If you have any
suggestions or ideas for this or other parties, please let us know.
Also this year, The Phoenix Inn is sponsoring a Competitive Shaggers
Association (CSA) shag competition November 13-14. This will be a very
exciting event and a chance to host some of the best shaggers in the area.
Mid-Winter is coming-up January 16-18 in North Myrtle Beach. If you have
already purchased your SOS Card, don’t leave home without it! You will need to
have an SOS card to enter most clubs. Hope to see you at the beach!
See you on the dance floor!

Our thanks to everyone who so generously donated toys and/or money to Toys
for Tots. We were able to bring them $350 (even Santa needs some money) and
two very large bags of toys. Your generosity enabled some area children to have
a Merry Christmas.
