Ottawa Promenaders Square Dance Club marks 30 years with an April 20 celebration in the Ottawa Junior High School Multi-purpose Room. Area callers will teach dances, with Chris Christian of Topeka leading round dancing and Jim Booton of Louisburg serving as MC. The club, organized in 1950, has hosted many callers and joined regional associations, while the Squareteens youth group continues under Max and Betty Randel. Founding member George Antone and his wife Anne remain active despite recent hip surgery.
