NW NEWS
Vacation months for the Ya Sure Ya Betcha Band are July and August.

be the 4th SUNDAY of September from 2-5.

Hi EVERYONE,
We had a grrrreat time in Wyoming and Colorado!!!
SYLVIA'S ARIZONA DANCE BAND, Sylvia Jorgensen,
Accordion; Richard Kuciemba, Sax/Clarinet; Carl
Nyberg, Banjo, Fiddle, Guitar; played in Cheyene,
Wyoming May 7, and in Golden, Colorado May 9.
Both, drew large enthusiastic crowds and we thank
everyone for coming.
Cheyenne's American Legion provided a delicious
meal before the dance sponsored by the Polka Club
of Cheyenne. Where did all the polka dancers come from?
Seems far and wide as we talked to folks who drove many
miles to get there. Enjoyed seeing dancers from
Colorado too. Dancers, Young Kim and Betsy flew in
from California to attend. Couples, John and Shirley,
and Tom and Lee from Polka Pals in Michigan
(enroute home from AZ) were there. Local folk who
reside in Cheyenne but just returned from Arizona
were Bob and Catherine, Claude and Irma, and Jo and
Roger. The Pruter's and Austins were presented with
roses and the beautiful song, "Wild Rose of Old
Cheyenne" was played for them. The Pruter's will be
celebrating their 75th Wedding Anniversary
January 2, 2011 and the Austin's their 50th,
on January 15, 2011 in Mesa, Arizona. Our band is
honored to be presenting a program and dance for
both couples. We want to thank Darrell and Sue Peper
of Greeley CO for their hospitality and being at all our dances.
On Sunday, we made their way to the Polka Lover's dance at the Kickers' wonderful facility in Golden, Colorado. We
appreciated the huge welcome and enjoyed playing there again
to such a lively and appreciative crowd. A highlight of the evening,
was the colorful "Parade of Hats" worn by the ladies, many who were
there celebrating "Mother's Day."
Our Arizona Band will be in full swing in Mesa again in November of 2010 to begin
our 2010-2011 Winter Season. It will be our 17th year playing dance music in the Valley of the Sun.
