The Ripples
We feature Cincinnati talent tonight: The Ripples & caller Frank Buschelmann.
On May 14th, join Troika & your dance friends in welcoming Terry Stefan, our caller, who’s visiting from Tennessee… or was that North Carolina? Either way, she’s a guest!
The Canadians came last week! We should be on Detours, broadcast by “Canal Evasion” in, well, a while.
This week’s excitement comes from the open band and calling by Trevor DeWitt. Dancers: if you have musician friends, invite them to come sit it.
We have two special things on April 30th: Vickie Gruner will lead a beginning waltz workshop starting at 7:15. And a Canadian TV crew is supposedly coming to film us for a series about traveling in the U.S. Come see if that’s true or we’ve been taken in by an email scam!
Hoosier Tones? Hoosier Tones who? Come find out.
Deb Shebish will be filling in for Leslie tonight, April 23rd. Thanks to Deb, and best wishes to Leslie for a quick recovery of her (we home minor) hand injury.
Remember to carry in those clean dancing shoes! The church requires it, and there’s rain in the forecast; soggy shoes are not fun dance wear.
LEDfoot with Jonathan Sivier Calling – lots of guys on the stage this week!
Emily Ann Thompson with Frank Buschelmann, so expect a few Cincinnati dancers. There’s usually a carload or two when one of their bands or callers is on the stage. Welcome!
Do you have a dance bag? Hopefully it’s already packed with your clean, non-marking, soft soled shoes. Our lease specifies that dancers must carry in their shoes, not dance in the shoes we walk in wearing.
Also in the bag: a water bottle. We throw away dozens of water cups each week, and would like to minimize that waste and cost. (If you’re using disposable, the church asks that we not throw cups with liquids into the trash. Please pour out the water first.)
And if you need or want: name tag, disposable tissues, braces or bandages for any joints you want to protect, assorted toiletries, generally $5 or less for admission.If you’re arriving late for the dance on a night that the Murat has a big event you might also need $5 for parking. Normally we have free parking, but if there’s a concert we’re limited to a couple dozen spaces.
Any other suggestions?
Hi contra dancing librarians & others attending ACRL! We hope to see several of you on the dance floor, Tuesday night, 7:45 – 9:45 Indianapolis time. We’re just 1.3 miles from the convention center, which is about a 7 minute walk if google is right.
Please carry in clean shoes! The church floor was recently refinished & we need to be extra protective of it. Our lease specifies that dancers carry in, not wear, clean non-marking soft sole shoes.
Bob Duffy will call to music by Troika.
