I am calling a dance this Friday night for a small
town in Florida that is
trying to start a contra dance series in their community hall. I have
several ONS-type dances that I use for weddings, but what I don't have is
very very easy dances for low numbers. This is their first event so we
could see 5 or 6 people. I need to make sure they have fun or it will be
the end of their dreams of a contra community! I've looked at Ted's
Triplets, but they are too complex for a group that has never contra danced
before. What are suggestions for ultra easy ONS-type dances that would
also work for very low numbers?

Another enthusiastic vote for Ted's Triplet #3.
Also, "David (Smukler's) Triplet #4".
Or try the "Margate Hoy" (three-couple set dance).
After that, you might be up to something like Linda Leslie's "Corner
Triplet"
