Kittens with Lightsabers

You know how when you do something all day, every day, sometimes you just can't do it any more? That's what writing is like for me. Phew, there. I said it. But now that I am putting metaphorical pen back to paper, there are a few updates we need to share.



First, our spring dance was fantastic. We had an enlightening AGM with constitutional debates and a vote on new COM members. To that end:

Chairperson: Charles Coulon
Treasurer: Sue McKinnell
Secretary: Stephanie McDaniel (me)
Members at Large: Greg Canfield, Noel Chavez, and Liz Stake





This weekend we are going to have our Star Wars dance. I know of at least one Leia, Jedi, Padme, and Han Solo who will be in attendance. We welcome any and all others to join us for live music, snacks, and themed dances including The Death Star and Wookie Walk, both by Sue McKinnell.



Then, June 6-8 is the Midwest Scottish Weekend. Remember a few lines back when I mentioned doing something so much that it made you want to never do it again? Right. 



That's what this weekend can do to you-but in a positive way. This is your annual opportunity to improve your Scottish technique, march to a piper's tune, and dance with your friends from all over the Midwest, all while wearing a sparkly gown or Prince Charlie jacket and kilt. If you can't tell, I'm really excited. 



I hope to see you all in the Beloit dorms (and before that in full Star Wars regalia). Until then, good job on that turn out.
