Ember Schira and Dee Cresdee, undisputed dance fashion icons for the 21st Century.
 

Jamboree BC brought together 207 line dancers from British Columbia, Washington, and California.
 

Bill introduced "Jambi", the new mascot of JamBC, who turned out to be quite a dancer.

The world debut of BAG DANCING. Notice that Bag Dancing eliminates the need to pretend you know what you are doing. Notice the only "lines" are in the floor.  Why did not become a huge fad?
 

Kirsten and Len Person, seen here auditioning for the clean-up committee.  (They got the job.)
 

Bridget the Boy and Susie the Dimplemeister (Bridget MacCallum and Susan Clark) showed everyone they could still be "Best Friends" even after forcing each other to dress like this. 
 

Proving authorities wrong, this photo shows choreographers CAN remain still for 5 seconds.
Seated front:  Lisa Strong and Joe Archer who subbed for Bev Sutherland.
Standing (L to R):  Dee Cresdee hugging Grant Gadbois, Ember Schira trying to be seen next to Hutch Hutchinson, Christy Fox, Betty Clarke (choreography winner for "Saucy Steppin") and Darren Barabas.
 

Jenifer Reaume missed the choreographer's group photo, so Larry Wolf was asked to hold her in place for this photo.
 

Those caped crusaders, Western Spirit, continued to impress us with their smiles, cool costumes and especially their talent on the dance floor.  They even smile when they dance!
 

Western Spirit got jazzed.  All hands accounted for. 
 

L to R:  Sara Raymond, still growing and improving as a dancer and choreographer. Michele Perron and Irene Groundwater also demoed new dances. Al Serfas helped with deejaying.
 

In the evening the Coyote Cowgirls (team leader/choreographer Christy Fox), presented a touching tribute to our friends and neighbors in the United States.
 

Joe Archer, Lynda Taylor and Bill Bader were masters of ceremonies/emcees/compéres at Jamboree BC 2001.
 

Grant Gadbois, co-organizer of Jamboree BC.
 


Carmel Hutchinson, whose dance "At The Hop" fills dance floors everywhere,
was special guest instructor and taught "No Way Pedro", another winner.

Apologies for the missing photos. Some got lost during the switch from one website to another.
