Dear all,
As mentioned in the latest web publication from Rosaleen Cunningham, our Solheim Cup Ambassador, we would like to invite you all to participate in the Jerusalema dance competition organised by the Solheim Cup event managers as part of the program to promote the Solheim Cup 2023. The music version we will use is the original “JERUSALEMA by Master KG”
What is the idea:
To get as many ladies and men as possible to attend practice sessions so that we can make a videoclip maximum 60 seconds in which we dance and promote our beautiful International Guadalmina Golf Club and the courses. All the dancers from the winning club will get a greenfee to play Finca Cortesin the Solheim Cup Course for 2023. We will be competing against all the clubs in Spain who also have an Ambassador, approximately 100.
Who can join:
All Guadalmina Members and Staff who want to do the dance. Also, for those who do not want to do the dance but want to be part of the fun, there will be a grand finale around the swimming pool where everyone will be holding a golf club and we will do something similar to a ‘Mexican Wave’ and video it using a drone.
Dates for training and actual video:
9:10 – 9:40am at the P&P behind hole 4 – Wednesday Mornings June 16th, 23rd, 30th, and July 7th
7:45 – 8:15pm at the Driving Range – Friday Evenings June 18th, 25th, July 2nd,and July 9th.
The dance leaders/trainers will be Maria Torres and Anne Langgard on Wednesday mornings and Carmen Ortega and Leona Poelstra Friday evenings.
A final Practice with all dancers will be organised in the week of July 12th – dates and times to be announced.
Tentative date to video the Final Dance and the ‘Mexican Wave’ is Saturday July 17th.
The basic steps need to be learned at home before the first training sessions - attached is an easy instruction video which you can use to learn the steps.
Dancers must committ to a minimum of 2 and preferably 3 training sessions.
What will all dancers and everyone in the final line up wear for the Video?
Ladies – Coral top and white skirt, shorts or pants with a coral/white flower in their hair. The flower will be provided by the organising committee.
Men – Navy shorts or pants and white shirt.
Where do I register?
Please register at the caddymaster if you are going to do the dance and you can put your name on the list for the Morning Training session, the Evening Training or on both.
Important !
Please find attached the document that was received from the Solheim Cup Organisers with the rules of the competition. Please give extra attention to point 2 in this document concerning consent to the broadcasting of the video!
We all need to stay safe and therefore the Coronovirus protocol needs to be respected at all times.
Finally
Although the final video is only 60 seconds there will be some effort required to make it happen, but there will be lots of fun, laughter and excercise in the process. We are looking forward to getting it started and showing the other clubs what the Guadalmina Women and Men can do. Please register and join in the fun.
Lets all go and swing it out…
Committee Members: Rosaleen Cunningham, Leona Poelstra, Maria Torres, Anne O’Keefe, Carmen Ortega, Anne Langard.
