OUR CLUB HISTORY:
Apple Creek was formed by Marilyn Hansen because there wasn't a clogging club in the area. The members became a close-knit group who enjoyed skiing trips, cruises, and camping trips together.
OTHER INTERESTING CLUB HISTORY:
Apple Creek has been very active in promoting clogging all over the world. Club members have been able to dance in the Doo Dah Parade, participated in the 1984 L.A. Olympics, and appeared in the movies "Wild Bill" and the "Hunters Moon". Marilyn was ready and willing to get a group together for any occasion that sounded like fun - we've even danced in a parade at a supermarket "Bag Boy" contest.
A SAD NOTE:
Marilyn passed away unexpectedly on March 8, 1999. She is fondly remembered and will always be missed by all whose lives she touched. The club continues as she would have wanted, under the capable leadership of Eric Bice and the club officers.
