Come on people,

Don’t be discouraged by the word “dance”, the Bon Dance is actually a pretty fun thing to learn.

Not only will you learn something new about the Japanese culture, you’ll also be able to apply what you’ve learned from this course, to the Annual Natsu Matsuri(Summer Festival), taking place some time in Aug/Sept(more on this at a later date).

Instead of sitting out on the fun or watching from the side, like what many people do, why not join in on the fun and join the circle formation of Bon Dancers around the stage on that very day? I assure you it’ll be very fun, especially if you’re dancing with friends.

Besides, the lesson’s only gonna take 2 hours, is that amount of time so hard to cough out? Furthermore, you’ll be awarded with CCA points! Now’s your chance to earn some CCA points.

So what’re you waiting for? Sign up now!

Reminder:
Venue: JAS (Japanese Association Singapore)(Meet and go together)
Time: 2-4pm
Date: 10th June 04

Minor update for AGM

Alright, I’ll make this quick.

Some of you have pointed out to me that you guys have signed up during the last “mini intake” for members, and that it is unfair for you guys to renew ur membership so soon.

Alright fair enough, sorry my mistake for forgetting about that.
Anyway, I still have the list, of those who joined the last time round. So if you are one of those people on that date, kindly indicate to the person at the registration counter, and you are encouraged to bring along ur club shirt.

Furthermore, it is to compensate for the looonnggg delay it took to organize the mini intake.
So to sum it up, if you are one of those who signed up during the mini intake, kindly indicate it to us and we shall cross-check with the list.
All current members are also adviced to bring the club shirt (alright, you don’t really have to wear it if you don’t want to)
That leaves the new and would-be members that are required to pay the full price for initial membership.

So cheers, hope to see y’all there.
