Calling Party Tonight Wednesday January 21

Help celebrate a successful Inaugural Ball last night!

Calling Party, my house, 7:00pm, directions here.

Kimberly and Company will be calling the English Dance in Salem, MO this Saturday January 24th. Bob and I are going. Anyone want to join us?

Anyone calling at STL ECD on Monday the 26th?

We're also getting ready for January 27, when there's open calling at Dance Discovery -- and you're all invited to dance.

You're also invited to call at the Youth Contra on January 30 - let Billy know if you want to call! And if you're up for a high-energy time, come and dance too.

Then there's the February 7 First Saturday Hatchling Dance - time to pick a dance to call at that one.

And the February 8 Big Hawaiian Shirt Contra Dance at Childgrove (because Don and Jeanne will be in the Caribbean and we're just NOT jealous, uh-uh...) called by the often-copied, never-successfully-imitated BillyBob and Dale team.

February 13 is the Second Friday ECD dance.

Ted Steele is calling the Feb 14 contra with the White Mules (formerly the Whistle Pigs). Ask him if you can call a dance or two.

February 20 is the Webster Groves English Country Dancers first dance - Bob and Kay and Kimberly will be calling, the Tu'Penny Uprights will be playing.

Mac McKeever is calling the February 22 dance with Ben Smith and Matt Turino. Ask him if you can call a dance or two.

February 23 is the Fourth Monday ECD dance.

And February 28 is the CHANCE DANCE all-afternoon and night dance at the Cape. Open calling (contact John and Kathy Coffman). Chicory is playing in the afternoon, and the Old Cornlickers are playing at night. Good weather or your money back...

How many new dances did we try at last nights calling party? I know I tried one, Joe tried one, and Bob tried one. Were there others? None of them worked right "out-of-the-box" but with a little tweaking, they got better.

In case you all are wondering, I've totally replaced A2 of my new dance (the into the center then unfold into a wavy line, bit) and I'll try it again next week.

I've already grabbed the guest spot with Ted on Feb. 14.
Also, as per an email from Billy, Deborah Hyland is calling the Youth Contra on the 30th, so if one wants to guest call there, I'd imagine you'd need to talk to Deborah (maybe Billy as well).
