Many Tributes in May

WOW!  Our Leader/Teacher Carol is honored for 

15 years of service in RSVP!

(Retired Seniors Volunteer Program)

Without Carol, there would be no Hats & Taps.

As far as we know, there is no other senior tap group in our community that gives their time and hours to RSVP and performs, gladly, for no charge.  Carol taught tap for several years at Mission Oaks Community Center.  She also put on many wonderful annual showcases there! For more information on RSVP, please go to the very first posting on this blog.  

Huge thank yous to Carol from all the group.

The RSVP luncheon was held on May 22cd.  Many volunteers are featured and honored for their community service. Hat's & Taps is pictured above from a performance at a former luncheon.

Rhoda, Lois, Linda 1, Carolyn, Mary, Connie & Carol.

Linda 2, Liz & Marie were sad to miss this.

Escaping from Costumes Anonymous, Marie brings her latest addition

 hoping to premier it during the Christmas season.

May 2, Hats & Taps performed at Country Club Manor.  

Thanks again, Country Club.

May is certainly a month to share and enjoy all of Carol's military numbers. The audiences, no matter what condition they are in, perk up, love and respond to those numbers.

 My father taught me to dance. 

Thank you, Dad, for your service in WW11.

We thank and salute all of our service people this month of May!

Eskaton Revisited

A little catch up in pictures at Eskaton on April 11th.

As mentioned before, Hats & Taps really enjoys 

dancing for this crowd.

Linda 1 and Ruth personify the heart felt encore in voice to the 

land that we love, America!

Spring Tip Toe Taps On...

Hats & Taps returned to Eskaton Monroe on April 11, 2014.  

Always a pleasure to dance there and engage with the audience.  

Thank you, as always, Eskaton.

At Easter Seals on April 25th, all ten Hats & Taps delight in being together and sharing with one of our favorite audiences.

Ruthie, center, entertains the audience during costume changes 

and has become quite expert using Mary's camera to take our pictures.

It's not easy getting group pics with all the movement 

and row changes.

We were able to do Razzle Dazzle twice this time for extra audience members. We welcome the chance to practice new, 

or newly revised dances.

Love Carol's purple vests and how the skirts twirl like Lois's!

A good catch of Rhoda having fun and hamming for the camera.

Carol leads the pack, in class and with her audience flirting skills.

We love Easter seals' floor. We can march to our hearts content 

with lots of room and wonderful sound.

The Tribute to the Armed Forces is Carol's marching masterpiece.

The formations and two-by-two shout-outs make us all proud.

 Once again, all ten Hats & Taps with Ruth in the center.

Marie, Lois, Carolyn, Linda 1, Mary, Linda 2, 

Connie, Rhoda, Liz and Carol
