"He is such a handsome hunk!"
Checkout the color coordination
...
Lucky and Carolyn are obviously members of the
Textile Color Card Association of the United States (TCCA)
Did You Know? - Prior to the creation of the TCCA in 1915, later to become The Color Association, hat makers took on the responsibility of color forecasting in the textile industry. Following World War I the information and supplies the milners were using from Europe, especially France, was cut off. Textile manufacturers who had grown dependent of these color decisions decided to form their own committee, the TCCA, which immediately published a Standard Color Card.
As industry exploded after the Industrial Revolution certain industries especially in the textiles trade found the need to be able to better predict and set upcoming color and style trends. The Color Association of the United States (CAUS), then the Textile Color Card Association of the United States (TCCA), was formed to accomplish this goal. By implementing a standard, business could then plan upcoming product releases and marketing with better hope of success.
Their Mission:
- Issue color forecasts in the form of cards twice a year
- Give directions in color trends to the market
- Enable different segments of the market to coordinate their products by offering the formulas for the production of each forecast color
- Buy products worldwide knowing they would coordinate at the point of sale
- Serve as an information center for all kinds of color information.
The central purpose of setting trends and maintaining color standards is accomplished to this day in part through publication of the "Standard Color Reference of America", and other swatch books.
Love on the dance floor proudly displayed!
"Hey Neil... Ready for the Greek Circle Dance?"
Did You Know? - Circle dance, or chain dance, is a style of dance done in a circle or semicircle to musical accompaniment, such as rhythm instruments and singing. Circle dancing is probably the oldest known dance formation and was part of community life from when people first started to dance.
Dancing in a circle is an ancient tradition common to many cultures for marking special occasions, rituals, strengthening community and encouraging togetherness. The dance can also be enjoyed as an uplifting group experience or as part of a meditation. Circle dances are choreographed to many different styles of music and rhythms.
Unlike line dancing, circle dancers are in physical contact with each other; the connection is made by hand-to-hand, finger-to-finger or hands-on-shoulders. It is a type of dance where anyone can join in without the need of partners. Generally, the participants follow a leader around the dance floor while holding the hand of the dancers beside them. The dance can be gentle or energetic.
How do they do it? Smile and dance at the same time... Who is counting?
Looking good!
The floor is still pretty busy!
What? Are we seeing the famous "Bye Bye Wave?"
Thank You for your great service this evening...
Can you see the magic between these two?
The room is filled with great smiles and happy times!
"I wonder who she is looking at?"
"I wonder who he is looking at?"
Oh dear! Vicky and Lucky are up to something! You can be
it is something good that will make people happy!
The attendees are thinning out... It's about that time!
Bernie and Vicky have their last dances for this evening
