[Callers] Dare To Be Square Weekend in Helvetia, West Virginia - May 19, 20, 21st

[T Claw via Callers]

This is my favorite square dance focused festival of all time. If you can
find a way to be there, you will not regret it. Today is the last day for
early bird rates on the super affordable tickets. If you can't afford it,
but want to get there, we can make it happen. Please forward to friends of
old time music and dance and try to send a contingent to represent your
community.
