Hi fellow callers!
I remember seeing a video a few months back from the Portland Intown contra. The dancers seemed to be having an absolute blast with a 3X3 contra-like dance.
Does anyone have any really fun 3X3 dances?I'm looking to add variety into the formations I'm calling at an upcoming contra/square/barn dance.
Also --> Any suggestions for super fun but easy to learn square figures?
Thanks!Emily in Ottawa_______________________________________________

Hi all,
I just started working on this page from English Dance & Song:
http://contrafusion.co.uk/Dances/EFDS8006-NewHampshireContras.html
Thanks to those who pointed out that the location was actually
Francestown.
I found the third one using The Caller's Box - it is
Spaelimenninir Reel #4 by Larry Jennings. (Thanks Chris & Michael!)
The A part of the second one is the same as The Nova Scotian,
but with a completely different B part.
Any further insights much appreciated.
Thanks.
Happy dancing,
John

I don’t immediately recognize those dances, but the location was Francestown, NH. There were very big dances in that town hall for at least a couple decades.
