Wrangler Visit to SDSDA Inaugural Ball Dance The Wranglers had a visitation to the San Diego Square Dance Associations round up dance on Saturday the 15th at the War Memorial Building in Balboa Park. This was their Inaugural Ball and the new officers were sworn in by our very own Pat Herndon. 21 Wranglers attended the dance called by Andy Allemao and Buddy Weaver. They called an excellent dance and kept us on our toes. Regina Aubrey did the cueing to a good crowd of round dancers. It was a lot of fun getting together with so many Wranglers at a visitation. The SDSDA appreciated the visitation and gave us all a big thanks for attending. We all got together for a couple of pictures that were taken by Donna Hawkins. |

New Year Dance and Field Trip 2011 HAPPY NEW YEAR! We hope that everybody had a nice holiday season and looking forward to a great square dancing year in 2011. Our annual Candy Cane Caper dance was a fun dance. All the Wranglers and guests looked fantastic in their holiday attire. During the holiday break, Lou & Suzi organized a hike for the locals at Elfin Forest. Although we couldn’t attend, Kathy took some pictures to share and they are included. We should have more outings like this. The Magnuson’s and the Carnahan’s attended the annual New Year's Eve Dance hosted by the Sandpipers. Johnny Preston was the caller. Lots of fun, we square danced until midnight, toasted in the New Year with some apple cider. Pictures of the event are attached. We missed seeing more of our Wranglers attending that dance. Lets hope for a great 2011 with more nice new friendly faces joining our square dancing group! |

Wrangler Benefit Dance May, 2010 The Benefit Dance on May 22 was very well attended by 118 dancers. Joe & Elaine did a magnificent job of chairing the event. Interfaith Community Services received $1,682.30 in checks. The Wranglers did a great job collecting money at the bake, book, and plant sales and the silent auction. Ray Holmes donated half of his calling fee, called a fun dance with a little help from Jim Randall. Rey Garza cued to the round dancers. It was a successful benefit dance. We should all pat ourselves on the back for hosting it. |

Wrangler Class Level Dance January, 2010 I just wanted to say that was our best attended class level dance that I can remember. Lots of Wranglers, lots of students, lots of Wrangler Alumni. I also wanted to say: Wow, we have a great club, and the best hospitality chairperson in the PSDA. Thanks go to Mary and all of the hospitality crew for great snacks last night. It was good to see Marge and many of the Wrangler alumni at the dance. Lou & Suzi Harris |

In December to be with her family. |

St. Claire's Home for Abused
Women The Wranglers benefit dance generated $2,137.91 for the St. Claire's Home for Abused Women. Wow! Great going everyone! Special thanks to Gene & Emily for chairing the event and to all of the Wrangler's that participated in the event. All had a good time. Let's also not forget Ray & Peter for generously donating half of their calling/cueing fees to St Clare's. In the picture album is a photo of Lou and Suzi presenting the check to St Clare's Home for abused women. Sister Claire was ill and couldn't be there to personally accept the check, so we took a presentation photograph with Sister Claire in a background picture. |

Wrangler Visitation to the
SDSDA Circulator's Club March 28, 2008 the Wrangler's visited the San Diego Square Dance Association's Circulators Club in Balboa Park. We had 12 Wrangler's in attendance which was enough to win our club banner back. Steve Woodward was calling and they had a fun tip where one square had to keep a sour pickle in their mouths, one square had no hands dancing, and one square had a broom for one of the dancers in the square. You will see the broom in the scrapbook photo. |

Wrangler Visitation to The
Whirlaways The Wrangler's had 17 dancers attend the Whirlaway's Feb 22, 2008 Spin-The-Top dance. We gathered together at Pinera Bread Restaurant for dinner prior to the dance. Ron was our spin-the-top man, but unfortunately, he needs more practice to win next year. Buddy Weaver was calling and all had a great time. We hit the triple crown. We won our banner back, came back with a Whirlaway banner, and best of all we won the PSDA Lighthouse back! |

Wrangler Rustler-Hustler Dance Twelve pounds of ground beef made up 6 batches of the Wrangler chili recipe plus Laurie's vegetarian chili made the Chuck Wagon Supper. Every spoonful was dished up serving the 95 attendees. The sexy Barbara in her fantastic hustler costume and the dashing Don in his debonair gambling get-up brought attendees to the bar and were given a I’ve been Hustled” or “I’ve been Rustled” pin. Ron kept busy all evening capturing and jailing desperados and handing out warrants and fines. The best ladies costume was won by Shirley for her dance hall girl costume and Jim won for the most authentic looking cowboy |

Wrangler Rustler-Hustler Dance 2005 Ray called the "Hustler Rustler Wild West Dance" on November 18th with Peter cuing the rounds. Channel looked lovely as the "hustler" and Bob made a great "rustler". Jim once again provided services as Marshall. There was a good turn-out of dancers, including several of the class members. Ray called a couple of class level tips so they could also join in with the dancing. Everyone enjoyed a dinner of chili, corn bread, coleslaw, and brownies and a special exhibition dance performance by the Heritage Dancers. It was a fun evening and everyone had a good time. |

Wrangler Rustler-Hustler Dance 2004 Steve called for the "Hustler Rustler Wild West Dance" on November 19th. There was a good turn-out at the dance and everyone had a great time. A chuck wagon supper included home-made chili, corn bread, and coleslaw (all very yummy.) For dessert there was an assortment of decadent chocolate delights; brownies, cakes, cookies, pudding, and mousse. Marge won the title of "Chocoholics Best Friend." There was a jail set up and Marshall Dillon did a fine job of keeping all the "rowdies" under control. Several people did have to spend some time behind bars. In fact, Peter even cued two rounds from jail! In addition to the 50/50 prizes, there were also many door prizes and prizes for the best western costumes. Between tips, the "Hustler" and the "Rustler" were out there hustling and rustling drinks from the good folks at the dance. And, of course, there was lots of DANCING! A good time was definitely had by all! |
