march 1 - road trip to village swingers

Good Morning FCP Club President.
About a month ago the Village Swingers Square Dance Club stole your club banner and were last seen hightailing it down I-270 South to their headquarters.
Your mission, should you decide to accept it, is to retrieve your club banner and make it back to Frederick.
Well, your Club President accepted the mission and successfully retrieved the FCP banner.
The photo shows the assembled FCP “Mission Impossible” team at the Village Swingers club during the heist.
Ethan Hunt was proud of your successfull mission impossible.

January 5th New Years Dance
2025 was ushered in with a bang as 35 Club Members, 26 Guest Visitors, and 5 Club Students formed 8 squares to the delightful calling lilts of Guest Caller Art LaVigne.

Eleven of the Guest Visitors were from the Village Swingers Square Dance Club.  Little did we know that those 11 had a dastardly motive to their visit.  For you see, that when it was time to stow away our beloved Banner it was nowhere to be found.  It was last seen in the larcenous hands of Virginia Fromel of the Swingers.  The photo above is all the evidence we need to consider this event as the first POST-COVID Banner Steal. 

​Our Club President is already planning a retaliation visit to the Rockville club to retrieve our Banner.
