Jeff Bundy

President

I am honored to serve as President of Lake Norman Shag Club for 2024. I have previously served the members of LNSC in a number of capacities, including president, and feel very fortunate to have the opportunity to serve again. Pam and I have a daughter, Christy, and a son, Scott. We also have two grandchildren, Scarlett and Josh. I worked for Coca-Cola Consolidated in Charlotte and after 33 years I retired as a Vice-President. Work brought us to the Lake Norman area in 1995 and we have made it our home. We have met so many great friends through the shag club and hope to make many more. Golf, RV travel, shag dancing and spending time with family and friends is what we love to do and hope to do for many years to come.

John Stewart

Vice President

My name is John Stewart. I am a native of NC and have lived on the west bank (Lucky Cove) of Lake Norman since 1996. I traveled the world thanks to the US Navy and earned a BS in Accounting from UNCC in 1973. My brother Mike, who was six years older than me, loved all music and Beach Music in particular, and that set the standard for me. I was a Cellar Dweller in the 60’s marveling at dancers like Shad Alberty and Jo Ann Johnson. In the 70’s it was Johnny Dollars and Groucho’s Beach Club. Great jukeboxes and dance floors. God was looking out for me after my first wife passed and Michelle came into my life. As our friendship grew, we discovered we shared enjoyment in snow skiing, motorcycle rides and camping. I had wanted to try and learn how to really dance and Michelle was all in for that too. Friendship grew into love and finally marriage in July 2011 and the ensuing years with her have been so very good! We retired together in 2021 and have embraced the new freedom to pick and chose activities and events that bring us joy and peace. LNSC is very high on the list of activities that provide us with a warm and friendly social group and an opportunity to serve in a meaningful way. I am honored to serve as vice president of our club. I will do my very best to preserve, promote and grow our club in the year to come.

Michelle Stewart

Secretary

I am Michelle Stewart. My husband John and I have been members of the LKN Shag Club for about 5 years. We love the music and the dance. We have been married for 11 years. When we were dating, we took shag lessons at Lynn’s under the excellent tutelage of TK and Mary Robinette. John was returning to the dance scene, and I was a newcomer. This year we are also on the Chicken Pickin’ committee.

We retired on May 14, 2021, and are really enjoying life and getting more involved in FUN activities like attending Chicken Pickin’ and SOS. We enjoy camping, being out on Lake Norman and traveling. We are looking forward to international travel now that the world is opening back up.

I am a UVA graduate with a degree in Chemical Engineering. I “got lost” along the way and ended up in IT supporting SAP towards the end of my career.

It is an honor and a privilege to serve as the LKN Shag Club Secretary.

Andrea Shook

Newsletter Editor/Photographer

Hey everyone! Just wanted to take a moment to formally introduce myself. My name is Andrea Shook and I live in Maiden, North Carolina. I am a graduate of Gardner-Webb University and I am back in school to become a registered Veterinary Technician. I currently work as a "Vet Tech" but would like to be registered. From there I look forward to going to Vet School. I have a wonderful husband (Christopher) who is also a member of LNSC and a sweet little fur baby named Zeus. I have been attending SOS events and Shag meetings since I was a little girl with my dad - Doyle Mintz. Those of you who know him refer to him lovingly as Coach. Unfortunately, he passed in 2020 but I feel that his spirit lives on, especially through me when it comes down to beach music, shag, and of course those Clemson Tigers. I've been bleeding purple and orange since I was old enough to hold a football. It thrills my soul to be a member of the LNSC family. I'm excited to have taken on the role of newsletter editor and look forward to where this journey is going to take us.

JR Norfleet

Webmaster

I've been fortunate to have had 2 careers in my time on this earth. The first is my music career. I still remember being in bed listening to the blues stations on my transistor radio. I came from a musical family, my Mom sang in the choir, 3 of my brothers and myself had a quartet and travelled to several different churches to perform, and my Dad played the guitar. I have 3 brothers that still play music for their church, and I was in a rock band way back in the '70's. We recorded a record in 1972 and some 40+ years later ended up the #1 Grunge Rock/Garage Band song in the UK. Go figure!! In the early '80's I got back into Shag and the music and finally learned the correct way to shag. In 1992, I started DJ'ing professionally. I've worked for a couple of radio stations, but nothing beats playing in front of a crowd. Second, my IT career started in 1974 in Atlanta, GA and have worked for several Fortune 100 companies in the country and held almost every IT position. Now, I'm retired and its mostly a hobby. I still design/maintain/manage several websites including this one. It's an absolute pleasure being a member of LNSC and serving!
