It's Official!

Our late square dance caller, Warren Jaquith, used to call two club nights per month with the DC Lambda Squares. With his passing, the board has had to quickly juggle the dance schedule; fortunately, previously scheduled special events (the annual general meeting this week, advanced & challenge the week follow, the church being unavailable the first club night in April, etc.) gave the board the space to make considered & thoughtful change.

One of their decisions was to formally ask kent4str and I to fill one of Warren's club nights. Similar to our arrangement with the Chesapeake Squares, they're not particular about whether kent4str, me or both of us call that night, just that we ensure someone is on mic.

The other club night will be rotated among guest callers, both local and regional.

Of course, there will be a new board in place on Thursday but our feeling is that they will be busy learning their new roles. The new board may revisit this arrangement but we're probably good for the next several months.

DUDE!

DUDE!!

so, I was at the beginner class last night to visit with some new friends at the DCLS club, and danced to the smooth calling of both Brian and Kent. On the docket for last night was the teach for "california twirl" and they taught the sound-flourish for the call, which turned out to be "DUDE!"

I fell on the floor laughing. The floor out there yelling "DUDE!" as they california twirled. What fun... ! so, where did that come from, again??

I'm glad you all were/are there to fill in for Warren. It's true, you have some pretty big shoes to fill, but I think your shoes are big enough and you'll do a great job.
