Hi Emily,
Alamo Triad is a good introduction to the concept:

<http://www.kempt.net/~entropy/zcs/zcs-part-4.pdf>
Just make sure that the two couple that exit at the top each time know that
they can’t both be the next #1 and should form an orderly queue.
Happy dancing,
John

Subject: [Callers] Really fun and accessible triple minors?
Hey contra calling friends :)
I have an admission ... ... ... I have NO triple minors in my card box. I've been
doing certain kinds of gigs (contras + ONS + contra/square nights) and it's so easy
not to call triple minors.
HOWEVER, I'm lately trying to 'up my game' to expand my repertoire.
Might you have a favorite triple minor you could share?
I'm looking for dances that are SUPER fun and relatively accessible.
Thoughts?
Thanks for the consideration!
Emily
