Firstly the line dancers are upset because they've lost heir allocated time at the hall just to accommodate the hall committee's wishes to host the ball to help them get funding for repairs.
They've already acquired funding to pay a visiting director to teach a group of debutantes the finer arts of grooming, deportment, dance and dress.
But there are only three would be society debs, and future funding depends on getting at least six, and partners. Will the line dancers come to the rescue? How will the local jackaroos scrub up and will they master the learning of the minuet?
All must be planned to perfection to impress the member of parliament who holds the purse strings for future funding.
The hilarious efforts of all concerned to overcome the seemingly impossible obstacles, demonstrates the tenacity and ingenuity of outback folk at their indomitable best.
Come and see CADS at their indomitable best when the cast and crew stage their latest production: ' Outback Debutante Ball' a hilarious comedy by Australian playwright, Judith Prior, to be directed by Peter Stephens. Production dates: November 3,4,5 and 9,10,11.

VIEW CLUB
Local vet Jayde Costello was the speaker at the June meeting of the Crookwell VIEW Club. From the age of three, Jayde always said she wanted to be a vet. Growing up in Scone where horses were an important aspect of both sides of Jayde’s family, she always thought she would do horse work.
Daunted by the extremely high HSC score required, but determined to follow her passion, Jayde initially entered a degree in animal science and after two years of study, transferred into the Bachelor of Veterinary Science at Sydney University.
In her third year she decided that horse work was not going to be her focus – cows had captured her attention! Following graduation, Jayde applied for a few positions. An interview locally to see if she was a ‘good fit’ for the Crookwell clinic led to a job offer.
Discussing whether or not Crookwell was where the family wanted to move was made easy when Dan, her husband, discovered the golf course.
