Those of you who are sponsoring live contra events, can you answer Becky’s other
question:
"But it would be very useful to us if we knew of other dance organizations that had
already begun vaccinated-only dances, so we could learn how that’s going. (Do they require
masks? Can people enjoy the dance with masks? Has anyone gotten sick? What adaptations,
e.g., slowing down the music, have they needed to make to accommodate mask-wearing? What
systems have worked well for verifying vaccination status?)”
For many of us, it’s the mechanics of Covid regulations that are tricky.
Thanks,
Lisa Greenleaf

Hi caller friends,
I’m the president of Toronto Contra Dance and we’re about to survey our membership about
when they’ll feel ready to return to in-person dancing, and under what circumstances.
We’re expecting that at first dances will be vaccinated-only spaces, probably with masks
required. But it would be very useful to us if we knew of other dance organizations that
had already begun vaccinated-only dances, so we could learn how that’s going. (Do they
require masks? Can people enjoy the dance with masks? Has anyone gotten sick? What
adaptations, e.g., slowing down the music, have they needed to make to accommodate
mask-wearing? What systems have worked well for verifying vaccination status?)
I had hoped CDSS would be monitoring back-to-in-person dances to inform the rest of us
how those ventures are going, but as far as I can tell, they’re not doing that.
Any information anyone can provide would be most appreciated! Back-channel messages
welcome! If I’m re-inventing the wheel here, please put me in touch with whatever group is
looking into this!
Thanks!
Becky Liddle
