| Info on Karen Williams, 66, who had a sudden collapse, due to a heart attack, on the dance floor 3 weeks ago. CPR was given until the paramedics arrived. Her heart stopped, she stopped breathing, and was put on a life support machine for four days. She said the main reason she's here is because God isn't finished with her yet. AMEN. Karen Williams is now out of the hospital and currently at The Citadel (she also had two operations on her leg due to problems with the iv the medics put in her leg). She will be there about a week or so, then back home soon. She will be back dancing with us shortly. After her heart attack, tests showed her arteries are better than her doctors, so they put a "chip" next to her heart, and if further attacks occur, the chip will send a rhythmic pulse that will get it going again. Her dad had a similar heart attack at 48, but unfortunately, no one did CPR on him. If Karen would have been home, driving, or any place that didn't perform CPR, she would not be here right now. Aren't we all grateful for our health. ONLY TWO MORE.... FRIDAY COUNTRY NIGHT DANCES. Oct 23; 3-Speed Oct 30; Desert Drifters. PLEASE WEAR HALLOWEEN COSTUMES ON OCTOBER 30TH AND 31ST. WE WILL HAVE A LITTLE COSTUME CONTEST ORGANIZED BY DENNIS AND KAYE MURRAY. DON'T BE TOOOOO SPOOOOKY. BALLROOM 2009 - SATURDAY - SCHEDULE: Oct 24; Rich Howard Orchestra Oct 31; Let's Dance Band Nov 7; Myron Sommerfeld Band Nov 14; Danny Kealey Orchestra Nov 21; Rich Howard Orchestra Nov 28 Myron Sommerfeld Band Dec 5; Having Fun Orchestra (12 pieces) Dec 12 Rich Howard Orchestra PARKING.....During the winter months, it gets quite busy and parking is always an issue. We have a few dancers that get to the dance a little late and can't find a parking place so they park on Quinn Street in the "no parking" areas (even painted red curbs) areas. Please do not block any street entrances on Quinn Street as the emergency vehicles will not be able to access Barclays. After Greenfield Guards announce all in-park parking is full (you wouldn't believe that some people quarrel with the guards), you may park just West of Quinn St. (East of Wendy's) in the shopping center parking area and have a wonderful leisurly walk to Greenfield. WOW - Our 50-50 CHARITY raffle has now exceeded $16,900. We wish to make $20,000 by April 30th. Thank you for coming to the dances.....regardless of who's playing. We hire the best bands available, so come on down every weekend. We really appreciate the support you provide. NOTE: The dance floor has be refinished, please use extra caution when dancing as the floor can be slippery in spots.

Our 50-50 CHARITY raffle has now exceeded $14,730. EXCELENT!! THANK YOU. We are hoping to reach $20,000 by April 2010. Important note regarding your donations: 50% goes to the dancers and 50% goes to the two charities (Sunshine Acres Children's Home & Arizona Animal Welfare League). Dennis & Kaye Murray donate their time for announcements. Erma and Jacquie donate their time to issue tickets and take your donations. And, all costs for the charity raffle (costs for tickets, administration, distribution, etc.) are donated by JOHNE's CABARET DANCES LLC. NOTHING is withheld and 100% of all money received is given back. Not many fundraisers can say that!!!!! We appreciate the 90-year-young dancers too as several of them take the $7 they save from FREE ADMISSION and donate it to the charities. Everyone wins!! I've provided a whole bunch of SANITARY WIPES for all dancers as a result of the recent flu threat. The thanks I have received has been overwhelming. There are plenty left, so please help yourself at the front door. We are so fortunate and grateful to have a fantastic place to meet, dance and have fun...all summer long. Our thanks go to Greenfield Village. WE WISH TO THANK ALL OF OUR DANCERS FOR YOUR ATTENDANCE AND SUPPORT. I PROMISE TO BOOK THE BEST BANDS THAT FIT IN OUR BUDGET, TO CREATE THE BEST DANCING ATMOSPHERE AND TO KEEP THE ADMISSION COSTS AS LOW AS POSSIBLE. ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS ATTEND AND HAVE FUN. WITHOUT YOUR SUPPORT, WE MIGHT ALL BECOME COUTCH POTATOS ON FRIDAY AND SATURDAY NIGHTS.
