The Dancing Grannys
And Grandpas News
"On the Road Again" with the Danc-
ers for the Month of August, 1999. The
6th of August found the Dancers en-
tertaining at the Woodbury County Fair
for Senior Citizens Day in MoviUe.
Opening up the 10:30 a.m. program
were the "Pistol Packing Mammas",
followed by the "Flappers" who done
their part to get everybody in a "Fair
Mood". Keith Miller entertained with
his "saw" and sang a few songs. Giving
the gals a chance for a costume change,
the guys then joined in with the Line,
Circle & Tap dancing. Closing the
program was Plush Robinson who done
his FLAG PRESENTATION after
which "God Bless America" was sung
by the dancers and whoever else
wanted to join in with them.
On August 18 the dancers traveled to
Des Moines, Iowa for the State Fair
where they entertained on the Walnut
Stage at 11:20 a.m. A variety of line
dances was done by the 16 Dancers
who took part in the Older lowans'
Music Contest, sponsored by the Ur-
bandale Lions Club, The theme for the
Iowa State Fair this year was "Knock
Yourself Out, which is what the Gran-
nys and Grandpas did, capturing 2nd
place in the contest.
As tired as the dancers were the next
day after the fair, Thursday, August 19,
they met at Theo's at I ! :30 for lunch to
celebrate the August Birthdays. We
were happy to have Betty Sieger join us
for lunch, Way to go. Keep up the good
work.
On Wednesday, August 25 the dane-
ers were invited to entertain the rest-
dents, staff and guests at the Westwood
Nursing Home in Sioux City, Iowa.
That is it for the month of August -
so until next time - "Keep on dancing
to Stay Fit and Have Fun"!
Area Pigeon Racer
Finishes High In Race
Michael Beavers, a third grader at
Lawton-Bronson, finished 8th in a field
of 138 Racing Homer pigeons in a
Labor Day Futurity. Finishing 8 is a
real honor for Michael as about 80 of
the entries were from many prestigious
clubs across the nation.
The race was held from Cozad, Ne-
braska, some 250 miles from the club
in Sloan, Iowa. The birds were driven
out during the early morning hours of
September 6th and released at 8:45 a.m.
The flyers started arriving at the club
by 1:04 p.m. and by 1:23 p.m., 30 of
the entries were home. The rest stag-
gered in as the afternoon went along.
Money was paid out to the top 10 birds
with the winner receiving $1500.00.
All of the entries that find their way
home will be the property of the
Siouxland Racing Pigeon Club and
auctioned off in November. Again,
many come from other states to pur-
chase these pigeons with all proceeds
benefiting the club in Sloan.

insurance agent and ask if your policy
will assist with payment for residing at
an "alternative care" facility.
