Hi, All...
Toronto attendance was significantly down during the 15/16 year, and it looks rather the
same for 16/17.
I'm wondering if the "good" dancers are preferring to dance at weekend
events where the quality of the dancing is considerably better because of the skilled
population that attend.
Just putting that thought out there...
I suppose the only way to know for sure is to poll people....
