As you can see in the picture, we've got the memory stimulating flowers filling our patio table and there's the linen tablecloths for the tables at the ball drying on the line in the background.
Andy has hoovered the Red Carpet and Sue is working her way through ironing the 27 90"x90" white tablecloths - Andy will take over the ironing when Sue or the iron runs out of steam!!!
The UK Champion workshop teachers have been on the phone and we're getting more and more enquiries as we get nearer to the day and night of dance at Hove Town Hall. Read the post below or click on the link above if you'd like to know more about the day of dance, this post is mostly about the flowers.
Flowers are a lovely way to stimulate memories. Andy has fantastic memories of helping his florist grandad in his shop in Lancing in the 1960s. Flowers stimulate memories for everyone, not just for Alzheimers victims.
Part of the donation we're all making to the Alzheimers Society will be used for a Sussex garden specifically designed to stimulate memory for dementure sufferers. And we thought it would be memorable to buy some colourful plants to decorate the tables at the Red Carpet Ball which would also be the raffle prizes for people to take home at the end of the night.
Win one of these flowering plants and put it in your garden to give you years of happy memories of a great night dancing - even if you don't have a garden you could always give your prize to a friend or relative as a present and have a happy memory when you visit. And you have every chance of winning a plant as there will be 27 of them available to win in the 'silent' raffle - the 'silent' bit means that we won't be interrupting the dancing to draw the raffle, just putting up a poster in the bar telling you the numbers of the winning tickets and which plant you have won.
At Rocsters we teach Smooth Modern Jive, an easy to learn social dance. Absolute beginners are welcome to any class and will be dancing by the end of their first lesson.
