About The Country Steps
Cloggers
The Country Steps Cloggers is a clogging group based in
Westwood, Cincinnati, Ohio. The club's main
objective is to have a lot of fun. Most demos are for local festivals
and schools. We also visit Nursing Homes on a regular basis.
The club started in Cleves, Ohio, at the
Country Step
Cloggers Hall owned by Art & Colleen Tenhundfeld. Art &
Colleen
have been involved in square dancing and clogging for many years. Their
daughter, Pam Bachmann, has been the instructor for the Country Steps
Cloggers since 1989. Clogging for the Tenhundfelds has always been a
family affair. Pam's grandmother, mother, sister (Amy) and her
daughter have or still clog with her.
Classes are held
on Thursday nights with Club dancing immediately following. Cost is
$5.00 per person per class payable each class night. Beginners' classes
run for 12 weeks. A
partner is not necessary.
Many members of the Country Steps Cloggers (CSC) are
also
members of the All Ohio Cloggers (AOH). The All Ohio Cloggers have
performed in Austria, Washington D.C. and at Disney World, Orlando, FL,
as well as many other
locations in Ohio. The All Ohio Cloggers returned to Washington D.C. in
July
2002 for an international clogging expo, and performed in Hawaii in
September
2003.
