Hi fellow Shared Weight organizers,

HOT OFF THE PRESS....!

CDSS is hosting an upcoming web chat on the same topic we were discussing late last week - how to connect our community members during the pandemic. (The web chat has been in the works for a few weeks but we had to finalize the details.)

More information is below including a link to register.

(The web chat is free.)

I'm really hoping that some of us will share our ideas with those on the call... it would be great to hear more about your ideas AND see some of your faces!

NEW! Web Chat for All Communities

Yes We CAN Keep in Touch!

Connecting Our Communities During the Pandemic

We’re saving our previously announced Web Chat for song organizers for a later date. Tune in for this special Web Chat later this month!

Wednesday, April 29, 7:00-8:00 p.m. EDT

Amidst this period of physical distancing, many music, dance, and song groups are finding creative ways to keep their community members connected. We’d love to help you hear from many organizers far and wide about inspiring experiences that are working in their local communities. So we’re hosting a special web chat using a new format to bring you innovative ideas for ALL communities—song, music, dance (ECD, contra, Morris, square, dancing with kids, etc.). We welcome your ideas!

by 4/24 to share your group’s experience (provide brief description in registration form)

by 4/28 to join as a listener

Please share this message with friends and help us spread this virtual quilt of ideas over the entire continent and beyond! Questions? Contact resources@cdss.org
