The Villages - May 2008 - (Page 40) The ending formation to “New York, New York” that will be performed in the fall show. “A lot of people had good ideas in our group,” Trish said. “We all talked about it for a couple of weeks and came up with an idea to use noodles to make it float. Then we suspended weights on strings from the handles to keep the umbrellas from drifting,” Trish said. Both women agreed the solution “works great” and credits several team members for contributing ideas toward the successful model. See — it isn’t as easy as it looks, but the women have a great time doing it. “I love the camaraderie, social events. I also enjoy performing and the costuming. It’s great entertainment all year long. We’re a small group, so we’re like family,” said Marilyn. In addition to the annual show in The Villages, the group accepts invitations to perform at private and neighborhood pool parties. In residential pools, typically four or six women will perform depending on the pool size. Donna said that at pool parties for clubs and organizations, they will sometimes design a number especially for the group. One example was a performance last year for the German-American Club. They created a routine with German music and used German flags as props. It was well received and the group is scheduled again for the club’s annual pool party. The group also enjoys participating in Villages parades for publicity and fun, socializing with spouses and traveling to see other aquatic dancers perform. “We visited Weeki Wachee and they said we could do the mermaid show with them if we brought our costumes. We declined because their water is only 74 degrees. We’re spoiled because our pools are 82 degrees. We’d freeze,” Donna said.
