Updated: September 16, 2009
Square dancing is old-fashioned fun that's still popular in the Big Country, especially among senior citizens.
One Big Country hot spot is Wagon Wheel Squares which is celebrating its 35th anniversary.
But, square dancing is more than just a good time; local seniors say it's a way to stay healthy and socially active.
Don and Honey Wilson met at Wagon Wheel Squares 15 years ago where they do-si-doed their way into each others hearts.
After hitting the dance floor with Big Country seniors for a night, it's clear that square dancing is more than an excuse to get dolled up in fancy skirts and cowboy boots; it's a way to stay healthy, socialize and, above all, have a good time.
Wagon Wheel Squares starts its beginner dance lessons on Monday, September 14th.
