[Ravensfort] FW: Dance practice--week of Dec. 29, 2002

[Debbie Spangler]

Greetings, Raven's Fort!

I am forwarding this email message sent to the Stargate/Gate's Edge dance
guild for inclusion onto your list for the following reasons:

1. Primarily, because this coming Saturday, Dec. 28th, we will be doing a
dance demo in the Barony's lands, namely at The Forum (an assisted living
home) in The Woodlands. One of our members' Mom lives there is how this got
started. This is a dance demo only but we would love to have you all be
there to dance with us and to be there. If anyone from the Barony can come,
please let me know via email! Baron Niklas and Baroness Kezia know of this
demo and while they cannot make it, they are in hopes that some from the
Barony can attend.

2. You all are always invited to all we do. This email will let you know
about our next Sunday dance practice on Dec. 29th as well as where we are
eating after the demo. Come and join us!

Merry Christmas! Happy Holidays!
Signy

Subject: Dance practice--week of Dec. 29, 2002


Hi, all! Take the time this week to slow down and enjoy the holidays and
spending time with friends and family--and then speed up to dance practice
on the 29th! Let's have a "ball"! Literally! Lady Rachael requested a
ball--wear your finery (if you wish, of course!), bring your masks, bring
goodies to nibble on. We'll have done two demos and just need to do some fun
stuff! Hey, Master Ihon--it might be time to see if we can get a Caroso ball
going?!

Speaking of performances, we've got one on Saturday, Dec. 28th at The Forum
in The Woodlands. This is where David's Mom lives (and Master Ihon has a
member of his congregation living there too!). The time is from 1-2 pm and
the address is 5055 W. Panther Creek Drive. Easy to get to: take I-45 north,
take the Woodlands Parkway exit that curves up and over I-45. Go out a good
ways, passing a "lake" on the right hand side--notice the green Loch Monster
in the pond and it may have a Santa hat on!--go past the 1st Panther Creek
Drive (that's the south one), the next light should be W. Panther Creek
Drive. Take a right and it will be on the left hand side of the road. Please
be there by 12:30 so we can get ourselves dressed and organized.

Order of the demo and who is dancing what:
1. Jouyssance
Charity and Tom, Melanie and David, Antonello and Rachael.

2. A much shorter version of Jack's Maggot and Female Sailor:
Ihon and Isabeau, Lorien and Antonello, Kemma and Tom, Melanie and David,
and Penny and Signy.

3. Rostiboli
Ihon and Isabeau, and Rachael and Antonello.

4. Contrapasso
Geoff and Signy, Antonello and Lorien, Ihon and Isabeau, David and Charity,
Tom and Kemma.

5. Prendente
Geoff and Signy, Rachael and David, Ihon and Isabeau and Penny and
Antonello.

6. Newcastle
Kemma and Tom and Ihon and Isabeau (heads), Antonello and Penny and Geoff
and Rachael (sides).

7. The Bransle Suite: everyone who wants too!
8. Official Bransle: everyone who wants too!

Please let me know if you aren't happy with the ones you are in for any
reason: don't know it, don't like it, not in enough dances, etc.

Words to Ding Dongs, Twinkies and a Pie:
Ding Dongs, Twinkies and a Pie
With chocolate cupcakes added.
So delectable that I
Am growing rather padded.
Calories are everywhere,
In every sweet éclair,
They catch me unaware.
I really must declare
A total moratorium
On Christmas treats and goodies.

Rachael also has planned for all those who come to the demo on Saturday and
wish to--to eat at Landry's Seafood Restaurant next to The Woodlands Mall
after our performance. (by the way, Rachael's birthday is on our next dance
practice on January 5th--any ideas????)

Have a very Merry Christmas!

Love,
Signy
