A brief history of the Florence Shag Club
In the early 80's five couples who loved shag dancing formed the Shaggers Delight Shag Club. The SDSC membership policy originally stated that only 10% of it's membership could be unmarried persons. Any single person who did not have a steady partner was not eligible for membership. As time passed, more singles wanted to join a local shag club.Thus the idea of a club without marital restrictions was born. On March 5, 1985, seventeen people met and voted on bylaws, membership requirements, dues, name of the club and elected a slate of officers for the new club. By the end of the first year the Florence Shag Club had grown from 17 to 94 members.
Through the years the FSC has seen many changes take place and continues to grow under the leadership of its officers and its dedicated hard working members. Many hours and dollars, along with several worn pairs of shoes were spent shagging at places such as Bogies, Raifords, Bonneaus, Shaggers, Milligans, Moodys and currently at the Circle Fountain.
May the FSC forever be a part of our lives as we keep on SHAGGING.
