The men attended the Thames Valley day of dance in April and toured with the rapper dancers [Fighting Cocks Rapper - ed].  The usual summer programme of fetes was danced though with less enthusiasm than previous years.  One exception was a fair in Richmond which was well enjoyed.  Following Paul Evans move to Ellington Morris we danced with them at Runnymede on the first Wednesday in June and this was made an annual event.  A second Yateley day of dance was undertaken in September and on this occasion Spring Grove was able to join in most of the massed dances.  In November sparklers were instead of handkerchiefs were used for a charity firework display performance of Adderbury Black Joke.
