Saturday 28 November 6pm-10pm
A fun-filled social evening for Johnsonville Club Members & Family
St John’s Anglican Church Hall, 18 Bassett Road, Johnsonville
It’s almost summer, but we’ve managed to squeeze our relaxed ‘mid-year’ social into the tail end of spring.
You can choose to dress in Spring colours and flowers, or Fling yourself about in tartan.
It’s always a fun event, with easy dances, a little mulled wine, buffet food, and a chance to socialise with fellow dancers.
It’s also a great opportunity for your non-dancing family members or friends to come along and find out what you actually do on Monday nights.
This year catering is by Tulsi Indian restaurant in Johnsonville. They will provide nibbles, curries, rice, and breads and the club will supply salad and desserts. All dietary requirements will be catered for.
Bookings are NOW OPEN for Johnsonville Club members and their immediate families.
