The good thing about having this many regular local dances is that
there are lots of opportunities for new callers, or callers
branching out into different styles like I did. But the down side
is that you have to be careful with schedule management. It's a
learning process :>)
Speaking as someone in the same geographic area, I do not find this setup
particularly congenial to new callers. I'm not really up for an extended
discussion of why I feel that way, but I didn't feel like letting this
sit unanswered, either.
As a programmer, as a member/organizer for our local community, and as
someone who'd like to encourage new callers both in contra and ECD, I'd
love to hear more about your experiences with this, either here in the
list or offline. When you have the time...
