It is with much sadness that Gary and I learned last night that our favorite dance club, the Brickyard Boogie Dancers, will be no more. I wasn’t completely surprised; attendance had been dropping over the last year or so, but still. It was very sad.
The reasons why could be as varied as the people who come. We filled out a survey where we listed some suggestions. If I had to sum it up I would say the BBD needs a stronger identity of who they are. Hopefully the club can return stronger than ever. In the meantime, there will be a giant void in our dancing venues.
If Melissa taught us how to dance, the BBD gave us a place to make dancing our own. People were friendly and accepting, and experimentation and individually was celebrated.
Thanks, Ron. We’ll miss you.
