To the Swing Dance Community;
On behalf of the WSDC, thank you for your support at the Phoenix
Convention 2003!
First thank you to the Greater Phoenix Swing Dance Club for your
fundraising efforts at your convention. Without competition entry
fees, the raffle split / request for donations proved to be a
successful alternative to the $1 per competitor donation. You did a
good job raising $801.00 for the WSDC. Thank you, GPSDC.
And secondly to all of the anonymous dancers who contributed to the
request for donations, thank you! I had money thrown at me from every
direction. I was saddened that I had no way of knowing and reaching
each and every one of you to thank you personally. It was such a
wonderful showing of support to the World Swing Dance Council! Your
individual contribution to the WSDC created a grand total of $685.00.
WOW! This contribution is sincerely appreciated by me and the Board of
Directors. It does take dollars to continue our work. Since we do not
know WHO you are and we wanted to thank each of you donors
individually, we're utilizing RAD to reach the mass swing dance
community! THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU.
The WSDC Competitors Points Registry and the Swing Dance Hall of Fame
are the most visible and widely known functions of the WSDC, but in
addition to that, the Council is involved in all areas of Clubs,
events, dancing, competitions, judging (quite often seen as operating
chiefly "behind the scenes"). We are here to promote swing dancing and
further communication within the dancing community.
Thank you again to the many GPSDC Event donors and to those that have
been supportive as members. Please visit our website
(www.swingdancecouncil.com). This office is here to serve all within
the dance community. We also encourage your comments and suggestions.
"Happy Dancing" to each of you!
Annie and the WSDC Board of Directors (Skippy Blair, Dani Canziani, Vic Damon, Jim Tigges)
