I'm in Kentucky, but not Louisville. Close enough to dance there occasionally but not regularly; I used to dance weekly when I lived there and would do so again if I were closer.

I understand that Louisville has something going on that we do not.   Getting on the board there is competitive.  I am going to talk with Norm Stewart about their secret.  Jerome aren't you in Louisville now?

I agree with Jerome statement ... for people younger than, let's say 40. Given the age average of a lot of contra dance groups, I find that this kind of statement does not have any effect anymore. It is hard to find volunteers. Claire, in Missouri.

I feel like involving the community in decision making will encourage volunteerism and board membership.  Do you agree?  Can you give me some suggestions of how to increase volunteerism in our contra dance community?
