A little news from the dance world at American Ballroom and I hope everyone is doing well.
We had our grand opening this Saturday and thank you to everyone who came to see us. We had so much good food and danced all day. Thanks to Rich Watson for helping me barbeque it was ready on time fro everyone to enjoy. Thank you to Mayer Bert Steinmann for coming and cutting the ribbon and welcoming us to his town. It was a surprise when my daughter Mary and her friend Tia came up from Georgia fro the opening. Mary brought us a new painting to hang on the wall of Ticia and me dancing, we both look really good. Another surprise was a coat rack made by Bill and it looks like a guitar. All in all everything went well and again thanks to everyone who came and brought such great things with them. Thanks Mark and Ticia 4-2-2011
We have purchased a new site for our dance studio, located at 1523 Parkway Avenue, Ewing, NJ 08628. It is a single standing building of 3000 sf with a 1500 sf dance floor. It is in a great location in a good neighborhood with access from many locations. We are now ready to continue dancing and have the availability for dancing at any time. The Wednesday beginner’s party is still from 7pm to 9pm every week and the Friday practice session is from 8pm to 11pm every Friday. We have added a Saturday dance on the 2nd Saturday of each month from 7pm to 10pm to see if there is a need for it in this area. I have completed the renovations and slowly am getting the dancing schedules up to date and at steady times. Posted 4-3-11

We also have a new addition to the family which we adopted from the Burlington County Animal Alliance at: (http://www.bcaaofnj.org) Her name is Gabby and she's quite a handful . She has a great personality, a lot of energy and loves her toys. They call her the monkey dog (an Affenpincher). Gabby has setteled in and loves her daddy and Mommy.
Joe Iorio is a gentleman I have gotten to know for the past five years that is a lady killer when it came to dancing. Joe just had his 94th birthday Friday March 7th 2011 and we celebrated it at the Hamilton senior center with his friends at the weekly dance class Fridays at 10am. Joe passed away on April 21st due to complications with his heart. I will miss him very much and always remember his witty sense of humor and those sandwiches he use to make me as well as him beating me at pool every Friday. We became friends and shared our life experiences, our age difference didn't affect our friendship because he always had something nice to say about everyone. I will miss you very much Joe and may God bless you.
Thank You and take care
