Shoe Sliders

and

Leather Soles

If you would like to order a set (or two or three) of the sliders that many of us are putting on our sneakers, please contact: Connie Sutcliffe, 510.888.9777; imcalgal@pacbell.net or search for Dance Sliders on ebay. These cover the toe of your shoe and slip securely around the heel of your shoe to hold them in place. They are very durable. 

The shoe sliders have felt on the sole which works very well on most dance floors BUT they do not work very well on carpet or tacky floors. HOWEVER, I have found a fix.

I took my sliders to Center Shoe Repair and he sewed a leather patch onto the sole of each slider. Wore them line dance Sunday where I have to dance most of the time on a carpeted stage and they worked perfectly. He charge $9.00 per slider; $18 for the set. 

714.842.4690; 8870 Warner Ave. (at Magnolia in same mall as Smart & Final), Fountain Valley.

Put it on your calendar now. We will be going back to the Temecula Stampede AND, in addition to celebrating NYE, we will be celebrating Haidan's 18th birthday. You won't want to miss this party!

Group Rate Reservations now available for the Holiday Inn Express.  If you would like to join us please send me an email and I will send you complete information including the group rate code.
