The Unicorn Square Dance Club was formed and held their first Dance in September 1982 at the Riverside Youth Center with Clyde Wood as their caller. In January 1983 there were 14 members And the club dances were held at the Gladstone Community Center on the second and fourth Wednesday. Our club was federated in October of 1983.
