in Reading, a town in the Thames Valley on
junction 11 of the M4, in the UK. The club was started in 1991 by 10 people who
had no where to jive, so they hired a church hall, took
a record player along, enjoyed the evening and the 3R's club was
born. Five of the original people still run the club, all for their love of
Rock'n'Roll as none of the committee get paid. all
money raised is put back into the club, The club has had over
200 members each year for the last 10 years, the committee feels we must be
