Please allow me to clarify. I am looking for some modern dances with a R&L Thru that include a partner swing, but not a ladies chain.

[Callers] Caller Needed This Saturday - Poughkeepsie, NY

by Bob Isaacs via Callers

Hi All: Passing this on from the organizer. I hate to cancel any gig, especially so close to the date, but a business trip got extended into the weekend.

[Callers] Caller needed this Sunday, Framingham MA, 4-5:30, private gig, pays decently.

by Amy Cann via Callers

Hi folks. I need to hand off this gig to be at a memorial service. This is a dance celebrating the installation of an old student and dear friend of mine as the new pastor at the Framingham UCC church. Expect 150-200 people to be at the installation in the sanctuary; how many choose to dance afterwards in the church hall and for how long is a question mark -- probably 75 for the first dance, 50 for the second, 30 for the third/fourth, and 16 close friends of the brand new Reverand for the final one, if I had to guess. Community/family dance repertoire, not hard-core contra. Budget is 400; I'm willing to pitch in 50$ of my own to bring it up to 150 each. I'm very sorry to be missing this, but the memorial concert for a colleague who recently, suddenly, and sadly passed away has to take precedence. I'd welcome suggestions for family-dance-savvy callers within reasonable driving range who might not be regularly reading this board. Thanks, Amy

[Callers] square dancers who are contra callers

by Judy Greenhill via Callers

The 20th Canadian National Square and Round Dance Convention will be held in London ON July 19-21, 2018. http://www.squaredance.ca/2018/ Why am I mentioning this on a contra callers list? Because I have been asked to coordinate the contra programming. I'm hoping there are a few contra callers out there who dance MWSD, who might be interested in attending the Convention. Price goes up January 2016, and it's in Canadian dollars so a double good time to think about it! I've been promised at least 8 hours contra programming, and there will be a live band available for at least part of the time.

[Callers] Fwd: Josefins Dopvals (Waltz)

by Martha Wild via Callers

All, This is Josefins Waltz. Chris Peoples provided me with a copy. It is a very beautiful and fairly easy waltz to play (not many eighth notes). If you get a chance, play through it, and see what you think. We could add it to our repertoire and try it this week - thoughts from other fiddlers? I know Drew, Chris, and Michael know it already. I know slightly different chords but for now we can stick with these so mando/guitar/dulcimer folks etc. would all be together. Martha > > > >
