Re: [Callers] St. Paddy Day theme dances?

--- Dorcas wrote: I'm calling a dance on March 17 - does anyone have a few - even one - dance that would work to pick up the theme? In The Country Dance Book, by Beth Tolman and Ralph Page, you'll find a chapter entitled "Thanks to the Irish." It includes St. Patrick's Day in the Morning (a 48 bar dance), Larry O'Gaff, and, of course, Rory O'More. Do you want to include a singing square? The Lloyd Shaw Foundation has complete instructions for Four Leaf Clover on its website: http://lloydshaw.org/Catalogue/CueSheets/Square/FourLeafClover.htm It's a simple dance that could be used in lots of settings, and I bet you'll get dancers joining in on the refrain.
