Hello everyone,
Thanks to Bob Isaacs, I'm calling my first full evening this weekend at Swingin'
Tern in New Jersey. It's my home dance so I have a good idea of the dancers'
ability, but it will be hot and humid. I plan on running dances shorter with
longer water breaks.
Here's the preliminary program, with alternate dances I'm comfortable with
listed at the bottom. Please give me feedback!
