As a caller and organizer, this is a hot button topic for me. Please, if
you are organizing a dance, take responsibility for this decision and make
it clearly public to your participants in advance. I understand you may be
uncomfortable making this choice and possibly want to "please everybody" by
In follow up to Jeff, my series is in the same general area but we differ a
bit in type of crowd (Cambridge/BIDA = city/public transit/skewed younger,
mine/Concord MA = suburbs/older professionals/car culture ~25 miles outside
city) and timing (BIDA = weekend, mine = weekday) yet we have a similar
A thought on the topic of dance angels...
Would it be helpful to try matching age groups of the beginners and angels?
Having a shared social reference frame (for lack of a better phrase) could
help incorporate those dancers more comfortably? I mention this as we had a

We're considering a topic which has been raised to us a few times from
prospective participants. To this date, we have maintained a straight vax +
boost requirement for our series.
I'm interested in examples of group COVID policies providing for
participation of individuals who do not otherwise

For those of you with a COVID policy regarding testing (particularly re:
performers "testing in" to be on stage unmasked) - please consider your
lead time and possibilities for contingency action. We'll be changing the
policy of our dance due to our experience tonight.

IIRC, in one of the COVID rescue bills passed, there was a specific
exemption for organizations protecting them from suits for people being
infected as part of operation.
That said, in the US, pretty much anybody can pursue a suit against anyone

While I make no representation as to quality/frequency/speed of the MBTA,
there's train service to within about a half mile of the Scout House. This
line connects folks to the greater MBTA system in Boston and towns along
the route as far NW as Fitchburg.
I'll be leading a discussion session at the 2018 New England Folk Festival
addressing low or no-cost tech tools you can use to leverage the efforts of
your limited volunteers towards greater effect. Have any great ideas to
share? Let me know ahead of time and I'll try to ensure they're covered in
