[Musicians] Next week - free CDSS webchat on creating thriving open dance bands

[Emily Addison]

Hey fellow Shared Weight musicians,

Below is the open invite from Linda Henry (Community Resources Manager at
CDSS) to participate in CDSS' FREE online web chat next Thursday.

The topic is CREATING A THRIVING OPEN BAND.... ... pretty awesome!

We have a community band here in Ottawa but we're also starting an open
band this year so seems perfect timing for our community.  I'll be online
seeing what I can learn so maybe 'see' a few of you next Thursday. :)

Dear Organizers,



Greetings to everyone who joined or expressed an interest in our first CDSS
web chat on June 21 (see link
<https://www.cdss.org/resources/how-to/organizers-resources#cdss-web-chats>
to recording). Our next web chat is coming up soon on *Sept 20*, and we’d
love to have your help spreading the word. The topic will be *Creating a
Thriving Open Band*. So if you know any groups that include sit-in
musicians at their dances or are considering this possibility, please
forward the announcement below.



Of course if your dance includes or is interested in open bands, feel free
to join us by submitting the RSVP form (see link below). We’ll be using a
new web chat platform that can accommodate 200 participants, so the more
the merrier!



Thanks for your help,

Linda
