Emily,
There are a few "no nos" for calling that are not obvious. For example:
"Never speak to an individual or small group while on mike." All such
comments should be off-mike or you risk looking unprofessional. What you
write on your cards with is up to the caller.
I always used a ball-point pen for my cards until I got them entered into a
Filemaker Pro database about 20 years ago. Now I print them out. My
penmanship is not great so this system is much better for me. Plus I can
print out multiple copies of a basic dance program and keep one in my dance
shoe bag, one in my car, etc. If someone is interested in a dance I call
I can just give them the dance card and print a new one when I get home.

Hi Folks,
The most basic of questions... does anyone write their dance cards with
pencil and if so, have they found that they smudge???
I'm quite a new caller and am a stage where I am figuring out my dance
organization. Until now, I've been keeping my dances on the computer.
However, I do almost everything on the computer and I really like the idea
of having my dances on physical cards I've written out.
But... I want to use pencil!
Is this a no no????
Thoughts???
Emily
