Its here!

Ladies and gentlemen! (and guys - please don't get scared off by the title...) Announcing the "NEW" theme for the 3rd annual Rendezvous English Country Dance Ball: 'Once Upon a Dream'. Skip the masks...instead, think whimsy, fantasy, mystery and excitement. You can be anything and anyone in the wildest scope of you imagination - providing that it is a character from a movie, book, or play...wigs and whatnot. period dramas. lacy cravats. broadswords. glamour and glitz.

YOU are the cast - the dance floor our stage, the story waiting to be written. Don't forget! This is also a very formal Ball, so the fancier, flouncier, more sophisticated and elegant the better. 

* Gentlemen. This does not exclude you. Lets see dashing heroes, pirate kings, wealthy mill-owners. 

* Ladies. Swishing hoop-skirts, courtly maidens, puffs, swirls, glitter...English Royalty, Southern Belles.

NOTE: please keep your costumes and formal wear within the modesty guidelines mentioned previously. Yes, formal wear is acceptable if you'd rather not wear a costume.

If you have any questions, please email Michaela: pnogirl@gmail.com

Scavenger Hunt

Hello folks!

I am pleased to announce a new feature to this years already amazing Ohio Summer Rendezvous: The Photo Scavenger Hunt!
Some of you may have participated in similar type events in the past, but this will be something entirely different than anything done before! (Which will make it exciting on my end, to plan!)
The theme of this scavenger hunt is Camping in the Woods, and have we got some exciting things lined up. Be sure to bring your camera, cause if it's not photographed, it didn't happen! You and your team must work together to complete a variety of tasks and activities and photograph yourselves in action. I won't give away the actual categories, but it's going to be fun! Whoever can take the most pictures, of the most categories, in the time we will alot, will be declared the official winner, and prizes will be awarded! Bring your bug spray, bring your sense of adventure, and bring yourselves to this event, because it's something you won't want to miss!
