Read what the critics said about the Nov 2005 dance:
  • Great party ... The last waltz was fun ... like the old fashion square dances we danced 58 years ago ...
  • Mark and I had a great time! The music was awesome!
  • I had fun dancing. I really like tagging in. It's a great idea.
  • Great job! Bring your fiddle to a bluegrass jam sometime.
  • Had a great time ... I look forward to your next Scramble.
  • What a great time: two hours of fun, dancing, singing, live music, corny jokes and homemade cookies - life is good.
