WOW. It certainly benefits a caller to be in area where so much dancing happens. I have been dancing longer, even calling longer - but I will never be in that upper echelon! Way to go, Dan. Dorcas

The first contra dance I ever attended was in 1979 at the CDS Boston Tuesday night dance at the Brimmer and May School in Chestnut Hill, Mass. The pre-dance workshop was handled by none other than Al Olson. Later, when Al moved to Chicago, I was one of the people who took responsibility for that early teaching session. I don't know how long the pre-dance sessions were in operation before I arrived.
