Book online now!

Johnsonville’s 2022 club dinner-dance has a Mid-Year Summer theme, in place of our Covid-cancelled Summer Ceilidh.

Come along in summer beach gear or bright summer colours for this fun-filled evening of socialising, dancing and eating!

As usual, there will be:

  • good food, good company, and a mug of Allison’s mulled wine
  • time to get to know your fellow club members off the dance floor
  • fun (Summer) dances brought to us by Rod
  • lots of colourful (Summer-themed) decorations
  • easy options for dressing to celebrate the event’s (Summer) theme
  • the opportunity for family members to join us
  • volunteer slots for hall set-up and pack-up

  • this year will be pot-luck rather than a catered meal
  • costs will be lower at $5 for members, and $10 for guests
  • we’ll be calling for volunteers to help cover kitchen duties
  • we will need a minimum of 25 members, signed-up at least a week ahead
