We are a non-profit organization that our main purpose is to raise money for music scholarships. We are an older group of members, by and large who enjoy the music and dancing.  Most are over 55.  However, we seem to be attracting younger and younger participants. So, one could say, we range in age from 30 to 90.  At any rate,  whatever our age, we are a fun-loving, dance-loving group of very nice and friendly people who enjoy listening and dancing to the wonderful music from the "Big Band" era. And you will love it, too.  Remember, it's proven by several prestigious studies-music and dancing helps the mind as well as the body and keeps you younger in many, many ways.

Our number one charitable responsibility, which we take very seriously, is music scholarships. Each year we award $1000.00 scholarships to deserving, graduating seniors who will be furthering their musical endeavors in college.  In 2006 (4) music scholarships were awarded. In 2007 we were able to award (6) in 2008 (with the generosity of an anonymous donor) we were  able to award (7) and in 2009 (with the generosity of the same anonymous donor) we gave another (6)scholarships to San Joaquin Valley students.  We hope to continue this tradition each and every year.  Your assistance in attendance and raffle drawings is essential. 

Please come, or continue to come; enjoy an afternoon of great music and dance to some of the best Big-Band orchestras around.  A few of our musicians hail from miles away in the Bay Area.  We are adding new groups as we find and approve them.

Our Board of Directors is 13 members strong.  You are invited to attend the meetings, (7:00 p.m.)on the second Monday following the Dance.  For more information, please contact Allene at 277-0326.
