1 / 1 Local line dance instructor, Nimisha Jimenez, and five other instructors, I organized a Line Dance Social in Cumberland on May 27. It was a huge success, with 55 people registered for it. 鈥淭hough it was not promoted as a fundraising event, we the instructors voted unanimously to give the proceeds to a favourite charity. I opted to give it to Sunday Station Feed, which coincidentally started its program in 2020, the same time that I started to teach line dance. 鈥淚鈥檝e been wanting to have a fundraiser for a local charity for a long time. It finally happened through this line dance social. And it won鈥檛 be the last.鈥� $275 was raised ($5 entry fee) for the Sunday Station. Pictured are the line dance Instructors who made it happen: L to R - Judy Palipowski, Mona Burgess, Nimisha Jimenez, Doug Harrison, Darlene Birtwistle, Joan Doucette-Wydenes.
