if you love squares  - it was dance heaven!  
  reminded me why I fell in love with danceing as a
teenager -  they did all those wonderful squares
interspersed with cirecles and longways.

  Hello everyone,
 
 Once again, frigid New Hampshire was home to another
 warm and special 
 Ralph Page Dance Legacy Weekend. It was great to see
 people from all 
 over the country who came to dance and learn. The
 SharedWeight lunch 
 gatherings were a couple of the high points for me.
 We had fascinating 
 discussions about style, teaching, stubborn minded
 dancers, stubborn 
 minded callers, psychology, choreography and so much
 more.
 
 Both Beth Parkes and Nils Freidland's caller's
 workshops made us think 
 and philosophize this year. Beth's on what it means
 to be a 
 "professional" caller. And Nil's on why we dance,
 why we call and what 
 virtues we want and need to bring to the stage with
 us.
 
 The retrospective video about Ralph Sweet by David
 Millstone was great! 
 Fun and funny and informative, David again shows his
 talent for 
 storytelling.
 
 It would be great to hear from other people about
 their favorite parts. 
 It was great to see everyone who came!
 
 Happy Dancing!
 
 Chris Weiler
