An old high school friend of my daughter's reached out to me for help getting a survey out to contra dancers. Jen is someone personally known to me as we would go dancing together when she was a teen. How cool to see that while in her late 30's she is:
Jennifer P. Agans, Ph.D. Associate Professor
Department of Recreation, Park, and Tourism Management
College of Health and Human Development
The Pennsylvania State University
Her request is this: "I am now a researcher studying recreation and well-being, and I'm doing a study of contra dancers' experiences. Would you be willing to help distribute my survey to the contra dance community in New England?"
Since the beginning of man the hours between the coming of night and the coming of sleep have belonged to the tellers of tales and the makers of music.
