St. Patrick's It Tis

Hats & Taps' third dancing day in a row ended up on St. Patrick's Day itself.  March 17th, at Campus Commons, and the group had a jolly gold time!

 We love this audience and venue!

 We are delighted by the oohs and aahs we get for our costumes!

  Lois and Carol twirl their canes as the rest of us tip our hats in  

New York, New York.

Carol, center facing, our tireless leader whose main mantra of smile, smile, smile, has taken us miles, miles, miles!

After changing into our Irish outfits, we join the crowd in their Irish celebrations. They know how to live it up here.

 Those green drinks looked delish and indeed they were!

Asked for an encore we settled for a meet and greet with thank yous both ways. We'll have to work out that encore for next time. Thank you Campus Commons!  What a great way to end our St. Patrick's Day numbers for the year.

St. Pat's Second Pot o' Gold

Sometimes a tight squeeze in certain venues but makes for more fun.

Love the green and khaki for Carol's second set of military numbers,

Two of us were sorry to miss this one but are happy to live vicariously 

 through the pictures! Thank you Ruth and Mary!

 What a great way to start the year. 

Hats has also been very busy reprising old numbers and learning some new ones too. More shows in March, and the year is zooming by already!

Post Season Tap Party

Hats & Taps end of year party plus birthdays celebration was a huge hit.  We wrapped up 2015 in style.  Well, some of us did.  Guess who is the octogenarian?  Guess again!

Glam Gal Linda 1

The Bday celebs were Linda 1, Lois, Carol 2 and Marie.

We were so glad Carol 2 could join us.

Mary, Carol, Liz, Carolyn, Linda 2, Connie,

Linda 1, Marie, Carol 2 and Lois.

Linda 2 loved her secret Santa gift. Another addition to her collection.

Marie was dazzled by this giant tree bulb.

Connie couldn't wait to try out those special gloves on her phone.

-While warmly wrapped in luxury.

Liz lit up with her new ornament.

Carol's calendar was a hit as well as a few other gifts for being our treasured teacher!

Carolyn almost cost Lois her prized present but decided on something different.

Linda again with her basket full of goodies.

Lois loved her blankie... is an understatement! 

No one dared think of stealing after Lois's long heartfelt appeal to 

leave her and her blankie well alone.

Carol 2 found more friendship with her specialized pillow.

It was great fun to have her share with us.

Mary very sweetly agreed to give me by bulb back 

and don her sparkly bracelet. 

Speaking of sparkly, here is Mary donning our new Tuxedo costume.

We look forward to tapping in 2016!

Many thanks to all that cross our tapping paths!
