A successful "Dinner & Dance" workshop was held in May 2005 in Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada. The Junior Youth Program Committee's first workshop had twenty three junior youth participants. This event surpassed previous attendance records for invited friends and guests. The workshop taught how cooking can be an enjoyable way to create delicious dishes for dinner, with hands-on participation complete with a recipe to take home to share with family and friends.

The lesson portion of the program had its foundation based on Walking the Straight Path. The chosen exercise [XVI p.61] was that of the mouse and the lion that illustrated the danger of underestimating things because of their appearance. The story illustrated that even God's smallest creation has significance and value.

The DJ services were commendably performed with great entertainment equipment that was very well received by the crowd. There were lots of dance tracks keeping everyone moving. The night was complete when the last dance was danced and the last song was sung. At at its peak, the event had over thirty people having a good responsible time on a Friday night.
