Butlins Minehead De Vere Dancers at Redcoats Reunited

No.53 is Rusty (real name Ann Allen) who went on to become a film extra and belly dancer.
Jenny later married Ted Rickets - the swimming instructor.

1962 was the opening season of the Butlins Minehead Camp,
so the above is the very first Entertainments team to work there.

Tony Walker adds:
Harry (Row 2 No.43) later became Camp Comic.
Jackie started me on the trampoline so I could take over from him and give him a break.

No.7 in the Back Row is Dave Sheard, who was the drummer in the "3 Kays Trio" (Verdi 3).
He
later went on to become an Entertainments Manager.

We are truly grateful to PENNY HOLMES for the photo and some of the names,
to Tony Walker for additional names, and Jenny Cook for sharing the Marie De Vere autographs page
