[Callers] Waltz-Time Contra Choreography

[Donna Hunt]

 Waltz Contra is not customary at the Mt Airy Contra Dance in Philadelphia.  

The Germantown Country Dancers (English Dance) in Philadelphia do them often, of course.

Here in the San Francisco Bay Area I don't think I've ever seen  a waltz 
contra done.
(I love waltz country dances, I do them in English dancing pretty often, 
and I'd be happy to call
the occasional one if I thought I could sell it.)

So my questions are:

Are waltz contras commonly done in your area?  What area is that? Do you 
remember when
they started being done?  How did callers introduce them initially?

Thanks,
