Freda DeGruchy's Monday Line Dancing class celebrated the start of summer break with a fun-filled party and lots of patriotic spirit. Participants came dressed in their red, white, and blue and enjoyed an afternoon of friendship, laughter, and dancing.

Thank you, Freda, for sharing your time and talents with our seniors throughout the year, and thank you to everyone who joined in the fun. We hope everyone has a safe and enjoyable summer, and we look forward to seeing our dancers back on the floor soon!
