The
Caper Cutters SD Club will be celebrating its

With new caller Jim Osbourne calling
and Wendy Jean Iannico cuing the rounds.
Our Holiday Dance Hoedown And Going Away Party for
Larry & Kathy Davenport
was held at the Elks Lodge in South San Francisco
last December 10,
2007.
It was another spectacular although sad affair only because this club lost
their magnificent caller for many years! But like everything else in this world,
life must go on because nothing lasts forever.

For future events, please RSVP to Deane or Rita Gough
by calling 415.467.7353
This club's holiday party is an annual event a square dancer
around the area must attend.
So, mark your calendars and sign up early.
Hope to see you there again this year!
By the way,
here are a few
of the many, good and healthy reasons why YOU should try square dancing!!
The following
are excerptsprinted from the United Square
Dancers Association News,
reprinted from Dancing News of Central Florida and
The Caller of Memphis, Tennessee.
Live Ten Years
Longer!
Square Dancing
will add ten years to your life,
a surprising new study shows.
Dr. Arron Blackburn states
" It’s clear that square dancing is the perfect exercise.
It combines all positive aspects of intense physical exercise with none of the
negative elements."
Dr. Blackburn
said square dancing is a low impact activity requiring constant movement
and quick directional changes that help keep the body in shape.
The study was based on their physical examination which indicated that both female
and male square dancers could expectto live well into their 80's.
Square dance
movements raise heart rates like many good aerobic exercises should.
All the quick changes of direction loosen and tone up the muscles--
but not so severally as to cause injury.
In square dancing, when you’re not moving, you’re clapping hands and tapping your feet,
which all contributes to long term fitness.
"You
don’t see a lot of 55 year old basketball players, but that’s just the age when
square dancers are hitting their peak", he said.
So next time
the Caper Cutters
Square Dance Club
offers a Beginners or
Newer Dancers Class,
perhaps you may want to give it a try?
