Profile
I started square dancing in 2009 with Town and Country Club at Bremer Waters over 50's resort at Moores Pocket where I live. When I was considered good enough I also went to Ipswich (same Club) but more advanced dancing where my husband, Les, started dancing as well. We both graduated to Mainstream in July 2009 from Basic with Noel McKenzie.
I commenced calling early in 2010 and entered Queensland Amateur Callers' Competition in 2010, 2011 and 2012. I was calling twice a week at Town and Country.
At the same time I was training under Kay Walker of Uniting Squares for more advanced Plus and all position dancing. During this time we were also attending Rambling 8's and David Pearce was kind enough to allow me to call (mainly at party nights). In more recent times I have been invited by both Kay and David to call on a regular basis at Rambling 8's and Uniting Squares. Kay has been my mentor since 2014, for which I am very grateful.
In the latter part of 2014 Kay selected Les and with 7 others to learn A1 which is a continuing process at the present time. From mid year 2014 I commenced calling to a group of dancers on 2nd and 4th Tuesdays of each month from 7.30 p.m. till 9.00 p.m at Bremer Waters.
As well as the above, I have called at Queensland State Conventions in 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015 and 2016, several QCA functions, Caller's ACF breakfast at National Convention Canberra 2014, Shindig on the Mountain, Gumdale Club, Redland Bay Club, Wavell Whirlaways, and in fact anywhere I have been invited to call during the seven years I have been calling.
