[Callers] Easy dances for teaching contra

Hi All, I'm calling two beginner-heavy dances soon (Dec 1st and end of Jan). The first is opening a new series and is required by organizers to be all contra (no circles or squares). So some semi-experienced dancers, but mostly newbees. The second event will be entirely beginners and mostly women but following a "western" theme. Could anyone share or recommend some dances that are both easy and fun? I'm looking for simple and forgiving dances that could be used to practice basic contra concepts while being satisfying for the dancers and even give them a sense of success. Dances I already have include: Jefferson Revisited, Lady Wapole's Reel, Becky Hill's Big Easy, and yes, Gallopede! I feel pretty good about those choices, having already used them in a variety of raw- beginner circumstances. Having recently worked with several room-fulls of beginners, I am wary of throwing too much at them too soon. But I also don't want to call a program of mush. Any ideas? Thanks in advance.
