    Hi Everyone – 

    In light of Austin just moving to Stage 4 COVID restrictions, some of the current ASRDA Board members are concerned about the risk of spreading the COVID delta variant at the upcoming Installation dance.  Basically Stage 4 Guidelines say that when in a public or private gathering, vaccinated people should wear masks and unvaccinated and partially vaccinated individuals not attend these gatherings. 

    We are aware that people are tired of having dances cancelled or being told they have to wear a mask.  We are pretty sure that the longer we don’t dance, the more dancers we will give up on square dancing.  But we are also aware that the delta variant is more contagious than previous strains and there are even questions as to whether or not vaccinated people can carry the virus in their noses and spread it to unvaccinated people.  There are also breakthrough cases in vaccinated people.  We don’t want more people getting COVID.

    At the time of this writing, Hyde Park Christian Church is open so we will be having the Installation Dance.  Masks will be highly encouraged but not mandatory. There will be hand sanitizer and “No Hugs” badges.  Each of you has your own risk tolerance so you must decide for yourself whether or not you are comfortable attending the dance.

    If you decide to come, we’ll see you at the Installation Dance on 31 July @ 7:30.

    Must be received by me before July 31

    It is that time of year. Please use your June 30th roster (or closest to that) to pay dues for your club. ASRDA does not charge additional dues, so we are keeping the cost to only $5 (what we pay to the Texas Federation). The Texas Federation only charges $5 per member dancer for membership. They in-turn provide dancer's insurance to all members. 

    By paying your $5 per club member, they become members of ASRDA & the Federation and they have dancer's insurance.

    You will find several file formats attached to this message. Please choose one and fill it out for each person as it saves your membership officer time since they would otherwise have to retype it or convert it. BUT, if you lack a computer then please send a legible list ASAP along with you check made payable to ASRDA. 

    Note: Similar names are always a problem, so if your member knows they have the same name as someone else, please make a note besides their entry or include a short explanation. Members should only pay with their home club. Any duplicate payments are considered donations and we use that to help pay for the ASRDA Officers.

    These are the Elected and Appointed Officers of ASRDA as of June 30th (out-going) that you do not have to pay dues for:

    Brooke Peters - ASRDA President
    Barbara Read - ASRDA Vice President & Hospitality & Texas Star Reporter
    Tom Barrett - ASRDA Treasurer & Insurance/Membership
    Shirely Myers & Steven O'Neal - ASRDA Secretary
    Hurbert & Loraine O'Neal - Chaplain
    Joe & Bonnie Lowe - Facilities
    Betty Shelton - Financial Advisor
    Tony & Martha Burghart - Friendship Badge Chair
    Gene & Charlotte Broadway - Parliamentarian 
    Calvin and Ruby Buessing - Past President Chair
    Mary Alice Troxel - Presidential Awards
    Chuck & Cheryl Sherman - Social Secretary
    Mike & Dana Goggin - Webmaster 

    For the callers and cuers, you can list each and pay $5 to be members of the Federation if they are not otherwise members (just ask them). 

    Note: If you don't see a format that you can read attached, just email me and I will try and get you one.

    The 2022 Mid-Tex Festival was mistakenly listed with an incorrect date on the Upcoming Events page in the recent RCS.

    Please be assured it is scheduled for May 13-14, 2022.  The "save the date" flyer later in the RCS has the correct date on it.
