Re: [Organizers] Organizers Digest, Vol 19, Issue 2 - Organizers

26 Feb 2016

Trying to catch up on all this discussion!

I don't know if anyone's mentioned but CDSS has recently sent out a few
messages trying to connect with callers who are working in French and/or
Spanish in addition to English.  It's probably worth touching base with
them.

 Do you know this caller? I've wanted to dance to her ever since I stumbled
 across this video snippet: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V28zWsX3lWc
 But I don't travel to dance much these days, and AFAIK she has not been out
 this way. This is a square, but there's no reason you couldn't do contras
 this way.

  Hello!
    As I am one of the organizers (and local callers) for the contra in
 Montreal this is something I'd like to get into at one point. I have  heard
  several things over the years: that someone was
explaining the figures in
 French but calling in English but also that someone had gone through the
 trouble or finding translations that worked for some figures. has anyone  on
  this list tried calling in French or if you now
someone who has and could
 put me in contact with them. I'd rather not go through the time of  figuring
  these things out if someone has already done it!
 Thanks!
