Announcements

A thorough list of what's happening in the world of Virtual Square Dancing, compiled once again by Char Larson.

Some thoughts from her:

"I hope people will join in.  The longer they hesitate. the more out of practice they'll be."

"I separated it into special, one-off dances (plus the A2 lessons) and regular weekly dances, plus helpful hints."

"At least it's better than just hearing about all the dancing we're missing."

"If anyone has questions you can refer them to me."   

Her email address is available at the bottom of the attachment.

Normally we ask for your Roster and Dues by July 1st, but of course this year is different. A number of associations have been asking the Federation for guidance since most of its members have not been able to dance. The Federation will be having a retreat soon and we hope to have an answer then.

Clubs, please be very careful when you restart your dancing. If you are not following local rules then the liability insurance that the Federation provides will likely be voided. Furthermore, it doesn't cover anything associated with sickness due to viral or bacterial infections. I would also not assume that injury insurance would be valid if you are legally not supposed to be dancing per your county judge, but those fine details would have to be analyzed by the insurance company. And, we do not have confirmation yet whether the new term of the insurance would be in effect since we do not have the information from the Federation.

"In the interest of keeping square dancing (and square dancers) in the area alive during the Covid19 pandemic, more and more VSD (virtual square dances) are popping up on the Internet..."

This is the same schedule we had in the past so there should not be that much you have to change.                             

Right now we are not having our Round Dance Party on Thursday afternoons.  We are having a problem with the church in using the hall.  We are currently trying to resolve the issues with the church.
