    Whidbey Whirlers offers lessons on traditional square dancing
    By Kathy Reed • January 25, 2013 6:15 pm

    It’s toe-tapping fun that has been on Whidbey Island for 40 years, and members of the Whidbey Whirlers would like to share the pleasure of square dancing with anyone who’s willing to learn.

    “It’s fun set to music,” said square dance fan Harold Gates, 87.

    “Square dancing is not only a lot of fun, but it’s great exercise and it’s good for mental acuity, too, because you have to pay attention to the calls,” said Bob Berka. He and his wife, Linda, are co-presidents of the Whidbey Whirlers.
