  More than 100 locals and visitors thoroughly enjoyed the Line dancing and general dancing at the community fundraiser Hoedown presented by the Renegade Bootscooters and Yanchep-Two Rocks Recreation Association Inc. at the Phil Renkin Recreation Centre on a cool Saturday night in August.

  Wayne and Val (the 'SWAGGIES') did a great job as MCs and music-makers and were well supported by the local "Lots of Little Rhythms" with one hour of general Dance Music.

  The Raffle, Door and Spot PRIZES were certainly appreciated by the lucky winners.

  All Proceeds from the night went to local Junior Cricket, Junior Soccer, Junior Football, Surf Club, Rock Eisteddfod and Christmas Project.

  The Association, Bootscooters and the beneficiaries of the night would like to thank all the sponsors and all those who helped with the setting up and cleaning up afterwards for making the event such a success..

• June: Family Bush Dance - $5 Entry

  About 100 locals and visitors came along and joined in the fun at the Family Bush Dance at the Phil Renkin Recreation Centre in Two Rocks on a cold Saturday night in June. Many had helped create the atmosphere for the evening by going to the trouble of dressing in appropriate Bush Dance gear.

  The crowd was warmed up by the local Lots of Little Rhythms and then danced the night away with great music and singing by the Pioneers Bush Band.

  A group of visitors from Kingsley gave some Square Dancing demonstrations and our local Renegade Bootscooters joined in the dancing in their own inimitable fashion. Everybody enjoyed the dancing, especially learning and doing the bush dances such as Strip the Willow.

  Some were lucky enough to take home raffle and door prizes.

  Our thanks again to those who helped with the set up including the great supper and those who stayed back and helped clean up afterwards.

• April: Rock N Roll Dance - $5 Entry

  Two Rocks Rocks

  About 100 locals and visitors rocked and rolled the night away at the Phil Renkin Recreation Centre, Two Rocks on a balmy Saturday night in April.

  Stirred out of their seats by Bruce and Robin's ABSOLUTELY GREAT, FOOT TAPPING LIVE MUSIC AND MAGNIFICENT SINGING of 50's, 60's and 70's Rock N Roll and other music, the crowd, both young and old, danced and danced and danced till they dropped. It was the most exercise some had done in years.

  A large contingent of Renegade Bootscooters managed to scoot their boots to almost all of the Rock N Roll music in great style. In the breaks, they also put on a special demonstration and taught the rest of the crowd a new line dance.

  The lucky winners of the raffle and door prizes took home great gifts with Easter coming up. Some spot prizes were also given away during the night and the crowd was awestruck by the quality of the contestants in the Jive Competition, especially the three finalist couples and the winners.

  Many people really got into the spirit of the night by coming dressed in their favourite 50's, 60's or 70's dance gear.

  It was an absolutely FABULOUS night. Everybody thoroughly enjoyed themselves and Rocked around the Clock.

  The Association would like to thank everybody who helped in the set-up, on the night and the clean up afterwards and especially Julie and Andrew Otremba for organising another GREAT COMMUNITY EVENT.
