Aaaah, the Texas BootScooters!

The Texas BootScooters are a country/western line dance team composed of 6 adults who enjoy working together to perform and entertain for many different types of events...community, corporate, church, political, charity, weddings...you name it! 

The original team was founded in 1993 by Chris Hookie (possibly best known for his choreography of the Zydeco Lady line dance).  I joined the team in 1994, and it has been an important part of my life ever since! 

In 1998 I became Team Director, when Chris' other responsibilities prevented him from continuing in that role.  At that point, we re-organized, modifying the name slightly from the Texas Boot Scooters (three words) to the current Texas BootScooters (two words), created a logo, and established some guidelines to compliment our new image.  In 1999, we became a competition team as well, competing in both the ACDA and UCWDC circuits.

Current team members are:

• Don Rawe

• Carol Rawe

• Eliza Ching

• Lynn Herr

• Vince Puente

• Mona Puente

Some highlights of our performance repertoire are:

• foreground dancers for the popular band, Asleep at the Wheel

• half-time performers for TCU vs. Cincinnati football game

• foreground dancers for the popular band, Jerry Jeff Walker

• opening entertainers for the American Red Cross, Chisholm Trail Chapter's Stars at Night Gala

Because we've been together so long, and work together so closely on projects, membership on the team is by invitation.
