RSCDS Wirral Branch Hogmanay Ceilidh 2009
Despite freezing cold weather, a good crowd of Members and friends
turned out to celebrate the coming New Year at St Stephen's Church Hall,
Prenton on Thursday, 31st December 2009. The new heating system, recently
installed, ensured comfortable surroundings - in spite of the noise from the
hot air blowers! Good dancing, good company and good food - what more
could we want? Click on the image below to see a few photographs of
our star performers on the night.
St Andrews Summer School 2009 (Week 1)
A small contingent of RSCDS Wirral Branch members attended Summer School
at St Andrews this year (Week 1). Wirral Branch were very pleased that
Faye (one of our youngest members) and Liz had been invited to take part in
the customary demonstrations at the end of the week. Here is a short
video showing 3 of the demonstrations.
Grup de Ball Es
Penell - Menorca
Dave and Gill have visited Menorca many times and have admired the dancing
of the group "Es Penell" (The Weathercock or Weathervane) based in Ferreries,
Menorca. The group were formed in 1988 and perform at the Saturday market in
Ferreries throughout the summer season as well as at hotels in Cala Galdana.
They have toured extensively in Spain and France.
With the kind permission of Grup de Ball Es Penell, 3 short video clips of
their exciting, complex and very lively dancing are shown - take a look.

Branch Annual Ball 2009
A video clip of some moments of our Branch Annual Ball
Christmas Time in RSCDS Wirral Branch
A compilation of photographs from 3 events held in a rather busy December
2008:
The Branch Christmas Lunch, held in the Visitor Centre at Ness Botanic
Gardens
The Branch Christmas Dance, at Claremount Methodist Church Hall, Wallasey
RSCDS Wirral Branch Hogmanay Ceilidh. New Years Eve in Prenton, Birkenhead
was one of the coldest nights of the year. The hall heating struggled to
cope (and failed) so we had to dance vigorously to keep warm! Monica Bayliss
was very brave to demonstrate her exotic dance (and costume).
