One of our pickier contra dancers *loves* this dance:
I call it Calvin Country, because it's based on David Smukler's dance,
Country Dance Romance, which is a modification of Don Armstrong's Calvin
Crest.
*A1* Neighbor sliding door (aka sideways do-si-do, Mad Robin, double Mad
Robin, shuttle)
Partner poussette 3/4 (Women advance) until Men are back to back in center
*A2* Hey for 4 (pass Partner by R sh, with a little assist)
*B1* Partner gypsy, swing
*B2* All 4 balance, circle L 1/2; shift L up/down set, circle L 3/4 with
new neighbors

Similar to Calvin Country, but with a nice roll away... I like this one by Heather
Carmichael:

A1 circle left 3/4, pass through, mad robin (walk round your neighbor while looking at
your partner across the set)
A2 1/4 pousette (two hands with partner, gents take two steps backward to their home
side), two-hand turn partner once+ (end facing across with the lady on the gent’s right in
long lines), long lines forward, and on the way back, LADIES roll the gents away
