But what a great month. First big event was the CSA contest where the SSSC was represented by two of our members. Then came SOS Mid-Winter. Four days of dancing and renewing old friendships. Just a fantastic start to shag 2015 as North Myrtle Beach was crowded with shaggers from all over. Now it is time to get ready for February and - what else? Another party! That’s right our St. Valentine party Feb 15 at the Marlin in Garden City. Bill Jones is the DJ. Members are asked to bring a covered dish that will serve about 12 people. We will raffle off a basket provided by Debbie Wilkins, guess the number of candies in the jar, and of course our famous 50/50. So if you are excited about going to the party make sure your membership has been renewed. CSA CONTEST The Competitive Shag Association held their annual shag contest at the Beaver Bar in Murrells Inlet. Many fine dancers competed for prize money in three divisions, Amateur, Novice and Pro. Congratulations to Allan and Patty Guazzo for representing the SSSC in the competition and placing third in the Amateur Division. Also Congratulations to Darlene’s grandson Noah for placing first in the Junior Division. The SSSC took this opportunity to donate $250 to the Juniors who competed. If you ever get a chance go see a competition, you will see some of the best shag dancers in the Shag world.

We ask all members to wear their favorite club shirt. Many club members have asked where they can get a club shirt. This is easy to do. Just go to any store and buy a shirt you like then take the shirt to Surf Water Promotions (see their ad to the left) and they will apply the SSSC logo to any location you want on the shirt. They charge very reasonable prices and do a great job. This also helps support one of our key advertisers. Now there is no excuse not to have a SSSC shirt on the first Saturday each month.
