The Cowboy Dance Was a Huge Success!

On Saturday, 31 May 2024, our Boatclub transformed into a Wild West wonderland for the Cowboy Dance, and it was an evening to remember!

The club went all out with decorations, and everyone arrived dressed to the nines in cowboy and western wear. Here are the standout winners of the night:

• Best-Dressed Man: Lou
• Best-Dressed Woman: Elsabe
• Best Dance Couple: Markus and Marietta

We had a blast with a Hillbilly Cactus Jack's Moonshine Table and a fun 'Jail' where our 'prisoners' got their photos taken! The line dancing was a hit, and everyone enjoyed a fantastic night.

A huge thank you to Melanie Kroese, Mary-ann vd Wath, and Hein Kroese for working tirelessly to make this event happen. The night was a great success! Thanks to everyone who helped, including:

• Marietta for the beautiful table plants.
• Sinta for the jail keys and creative ideas.
• Ben Uys for the milk cans.
• Marilda for making a table look stunning.
• Carol for helping with the tables and chairs.
• Gerhard and Paulina Havenga for the cowboy hats.
• Danie Cillie for the ox wagons.
• Oom Stollie and Tannie Talana for the decor.
• Markus for the paint and other donations.
• Lester Langley for the amazing signpost he made for us.

And thanks to everyone who donated newspapers!
