Get To Know Your Officers For 2011-2012

John Carpenter- President and Chairman of the Board

I was born in PA where I never was exposed to the shag. I moved to South Carolina and while there was plenty of shagging there, I did not learn how to shag until I met this pretty girl named Robin Morley. I am now one of those many people who can say that the dance has changed my life. I have three children, Maxton, Amber, and JT, and my cat TJ. I coached high school wrestling for 12 years and love to play the harmonica. This is my second year as President, and I truly love our Club and I am always open to suggestions to make SBSC even better.

Shirlene Wike-Vice President

Susan Whisnant-Secretary

I live in Morganton, NC and have been an active member of SBSC since the ‘90’s. I have watched our club grow over the years and am greatly enthused by all the wonderful, fun, and friendly members we have. It is my pleasure to serve as the club’s secretary and to keep SBSC members and shagging friends up-to-date about our club through our monthly newsletter.

Marie Young- Treasurer

We will celebrate our 30th wedding anniversary this year (June). Our daughter received an AA from Western Piedmont and hopes to graduate from ASU in a year (or two?!). We've always enjoyed dancing (even though we shag 'our way'). We are retired teachers (32/33 years) but still do some substitute teaching. We have been members of the Sandy Beach Shag Club since the early 1990's.

Jimmy Crisp-Member At Large

Jim Noggle-Member At Large

Arlene Coley-Past President

Steve and I will soon celebrate our 40^th anniversary (He robbed the cradle) ….WOW…….I still loves the man! We have a daughter, Christie, and a Yorkie, Jeter, the two loves of our lives.

We started shagging when Christie went to Chapel Hill in 1995 and haven’t stopped.

We love the beach, the sun, fine food, strong drinks, good times, good friends, to shag, and we love our shag family……..SBSC.
