Come and join me and learn a traditional Russian Gypsy Folk Dance. This lively dance is performed to a traditional Russian Gypsy song “Shatritsa”. It tells the story of a young girl living in a tent. As in most Russian dances, the dance starts slowly but increases in speed and intensity near the end of the song.
Wear a long, full, skirt and a comfortable top and be ready to move!

Friday, January 22, 2016 at 1:02PM Friday, January 22, 2016 at 12:58PM Stephen Hume: Increased B.C. ferry traffic shows value of discounting fares.
Friday, January 22, 2016 at 12:57PM I am looking for someone who has a truck with a full sized box to pick up, load & deliver some furniture (couch, table & chairs) & items to Nanaimo.
The date & time will be specific, either the 28th or 29th of February, as you will be meeting someone just before he is leaving to the Kootenays.
I will pay for ferry $25, gas $50 & time $125.
Please contact sapepin@hotmail.com
Gratitude in advance,
