Hi Everyone:

Our annual golf outing is coming up this Sunday, July 18, 2004. We
want you to attend, no matter what kind of golfer you are!

The cost is only $45.00 including golf, trophies, prizes and a light
lunch. It all starts at 1:00 p.m. We have a closest to the pin and
longest drive trophy for both men and women. It should really be a
blast!!

The course is located between Goodrich & Davison off of M-15. Going
N. or S. on M-15, you will see the big tower at Hadley Rd & M-15.
You go east until you get to Hadley. Turn right at the stop sign and
go 1/4 mile to the golf course.

It will be a scramble format so no matter what kind of golfer you
are, you'll be welcome on a team. We will put a good golfer on each
team to make it fair.

EMAIL me to let me know you plan to attend so I can make sure we
have the food allotment correct. Call me, if you prefer, before
Saturday at the latest. Everyone is welcome!

As always, we will provide ice, cups and plasticware. You bring your
own drinks and we will have a cake to celebrate Bob's birthday. The
cost is only $7.00 for all clubs members ($6.00 if you wear your
MSSHD club shirt) and $10.00 for non-club guests. Bob will be
playing some of the great music he previewed at the Michigan

Hello Dancers,

Some of us thought it would be fun to take a trip to Dance Elite
Studio in West Bloomfield this Friday. We're doing it without a
dinner before the dance like last time but perhaps we'll get a small
bite to eat afterwards.  The dance party begins at 9 pm and goes to
midnight.

They will play ballroom music but with our friend, Glenn Clark being
the DJ, we should get quite a bit of  east & west coast swing and
hustle.

For directions from your home, please go to google.com, type in 6315
Haggerty, Bloomfield Hills, MI and it will send you to
mapquest.com.  The studio is located one block north of Maple Rd (15
Mile Rd). It should be lots of fun. As always, Bob will bring some
of his music for MSSHD dancers to do their stuff. Bring your MSSHD
card for a $1.00 discount. Join us for a great time out!!

Swing Dance Hall of Fame" Bob Budzynski assisted by his wife

take on the world.  Ten weeks with your teacher and you'll be ready
to step out on the floor with authority. A few Latin dances will be
added to the mix to increase your dancing pleasure. Starting times
for this class will be 6:50 P.M. at all three schools

  It's time to step up!

Again Bob & Beverly Budzynski will be providing top-notch
instruction for those more experienced dancers who want to vastly
improve their skills. West Coast Swing, a few East Coast advanced
patterns, some Salsa, Waltz  & more. Let us round out your skills
and make you the dancer you always wanted to be.  Starting times
will be 7:40 P.M. at all three schools.

We are looking forward to this fall session.  We love to meet new
dancers.  Please refer us to your friends and relatives.  If the
times are not convenient,  we teach private lessons in our home.

Some catalogs are late in coming out so call the school and
register!!  We'll see you there!

interested, just show up.

The restaurant in just south of I-69 on the west side of Belsay Rd.
