Fun and Flashback

I called a dance with Jay Henderson tonight at Whirlaways, It was a hoot with visitors from3 mountain clubs and from Visalia- also a couple who can no longer dance stopped in to say hi.
IT WAS A HOOT- It was new dancer focused and Jay and I agree we'll plan some more 2 caller events- Someone quipped "these are the folks who aren't mad at either of you"- Sad but sadly true statement- While some of the "baggage" dates back 20 years w/Jay, I'm just a 1 year rookie :)
3 words to those who wish to keep up grudges -GET OVER IT. My gosh you just might of had fun, you could've supported NEWER DANCERS and maybe,just maybe helped to re-build the sagging area- It's not too late- You don't have to dance to me, You don't have to dance to Jay-but soon you'll run out of callers to be mad at- If this keeps up there won't be any callers, as there will be no dancers.
Heck print this one for a meeting-It's been quiet lately :)
MERRY CHRISTMAS
Rick

  1. Big thanks to both you and Jay for all that you do for square dancing. You can't please all the people all the time, yet I very much like your message that people need to just Get Over It. Let's acknowledge that we've all had hurt feelings over the years, then let's all move on.

  2. We enjoyed the dance. It's rare thatso many dancers and 2 callers would support the beginners
    Keep it up

  3. I always feel if someone has a problem and stays home, It has to be their problem and not yours so it's not a problem to you!

    Merry Christmas and continue to show the new people it's not how many movements you know it's having fun dancing the ONE'S YOU KNOW!
