A set by Magill followed later on
and warmed the crowd up nicely for me to have another go at LDF 2011 at 11.30pm, which again was well received.
I was a little bit choked when John
King came to me and told me how much monies were in the pot, and I was still quite emotional when I told the crowd the amount they had raised which was, as it stood at 11.30pm at night, an amazing £1,016. I invited them all to give themselves a round of applause.
The funds raised were a combination
of monies over the weekend and also from the sponsorship arranged by John King inviting all in attendance to get sponsorship for taking part in the LDF 2011 dance. John had been kind enough to post the dance script out to the guests so that they could practice and then he rose to the challenge of being taught the dance and took his front row place with pride and was supported by all around him and he did a sterling job.
Pedro and his amazing dance floor was
in attendance and as per norm with the pro-dance floor, was greatly appreciated by the dancers.
I have to thank Graham and John at
The final amount raised for the LDF at this amazing Kings Hill weekend was £1,100!
John King said: "I am really
pleased to be able to send this cheque for the LDF charity. I had set myself a private target of £1k so this is well beyond my expectations, proving once again that Line dancers are some of the most generous people on the planet.
“I would like to say an extra
thank you to Elaine Karch’s Grand Canyon Kickers and Susan Oliver’s Stompers from the Edinburgh District for their amazing contribution totalling £204. The LDF is a great charity, keep giving generously and raising funds for it!"
I was able to provide the crowd with a
higher figure on the Sunday morning only to be advised that monies were still coming in so the £1,070 is NOT a final figure so, watch this space.
Alan and Jacqui have invited me to their
social in Bolton on 26th March to make a guest appearance and teach the LDF 2011 dance. They left the Norbreck armed with LDF merchandise and leaflets about forthcoming events and I was honoured to be invited and am looking forward to it. So again, if you are able to come to their event, please do and come and support the Line Dance Foundation.
Kingshill for inviting me to attend this event, for all their support and their fundraising efforts and for doing a top job with all the weekend events they arrange for Line dancing around the country.
