18TH
ANNUAL FALL CYCLONE - Nov 7-9,
2008!
As our guests say, "Nothing on Earth
compares to a Cyclone".
NOTE: We are currently finalizing contracts, determining which motels we will use this year, etc. PLEASE be patient and do not try to make reservations or order tickets yet. We expect to have plans finalized, and a flyer available for our 2008 event within the next few weeks.
The 2007 Fall Cyclone is now just a great memory. We want to thank all of our guests from SEVENTY different shag clubs for your support and attendance. We enjoyed having you visit with us, and we look forward to seeing you again soon.
We have LOTS of photos from the party. Go to our PICS page to see them.
Finally, please note that our party is always the first full (three-day) weekend in November. Next year that will be Nov 7-9.
Where did the party
get it's name? The
party was named after the time of the year, and to tie into the club name (Twisters)
so people would remember it. A "cyclone" is a twister with water.
In our case, we figured that twisters in the Lake Norman area must be a Cyclone!
How has it evolved?
The first year our
party was host to about 350 people. Over the past 16 years we have grown. At
one point we had 1100 people. We decided to cut back our numbers to ensure we
didn't get too crowded. However, we now have a sellout every year. So, get your
tickets early. Our party (and our club) has an excellent reputation. In fact,
all three times our club has been eligible, the Association of Carolina Shag
Clubs (over 100 clubs) has selected us to host their annual Winter meeting and
party.
Who comes? We
have attendees from all over the East Coast. We draw from many different shag
clubs, and from the crowd of people who love the music and the dance, but are
not in clubs. We also have dignitaries, Ocean Drive lounge owners and staff,
dance professionals and instructors, and other well-known people at our event.
It's a reunion of good friends and fun.

CYCLONE FLYER AND STILL HAVE A QUESTION, PLEASE EMAIL

THANK YOU.
(Sorry,
but due to the high cost of this party, and the very low margin of profit, we
are unable to sell any one-day tickets to this "all inclusive" event.)
