OBJ Morris - 2025 Scrapbook

First Practice in Jennetts Park Community Centre
7 January 2025

We moved our weekly practice/teaching sessions Jennetts Park Community Centre

It gives us more space, in a more convenient location.  We'd recently had a large influx of new starters, so the additional space was invaluable.  Mike taught the newbies Dilwyn and Hay-on-Wye in one room while the established dancers used the main room.  Then it was all in together for the last half of the practice.

OBJ comprised: Andy, Ann, Carl, Christine, Christopher, Claire, Clare, Claudia, Colin, Eleanor, Emil, Graham, Hazel, Helen, Jill, Joe, Karen, Lawre, Les, Mark, Marlena, Mickie, Mike, Peter, Philip, Ralph, Richard(drum), Richard(dancer), Rose, Sarah, Sylvia, Tim & H, and Tony
