The Solvang weekend went well, albeit not as much growth as we hoped-One more year and we'll decide if it's to continue- Sorta Good news
The Anniversary dance of a club in the USDA area was poorly attended, and this concerns me- This dance has been one of the larger dances in the years past- Now there was 1 square of that area dancers at Solvang, (Up from 3 couples last year) but that does not explain the dramatic drop in attendance- Not Good news I hope this was a fluke- Good Caller, lotsa food-just a crappy turnout- I promise to re-double my efforts to promote SD in this area!!
Now the Sunday Dance in the same area had a decent crowd (by that clubs averages) so that's good- The bottom line is between the 2 dances only some 7 squares attended
(Even if the area folks who were in Solvang had stayed home-it would've been 8 squares total-less than the single club anniversary dance had last year)
I wonder if, given the success of the last MS Dance in the are on 5/7, and the poor attendance of these 2 dances- Should Plus be the destination level?- In most areas on Earth (literally) MS is the level.
Thoughts??

Good question
ReplyDeleteWe need a new Mainstream. Myself I like to hear and dance the Plus Moves. Just how many moves do you need to use a Plus Move?
ReplyDeleteI'm a believer in Minus! Anything everyone knows or can be taught during the night! You don't need to know Mainstream to dance ANY other move!
A person who has never danced before in their life can learn ANY call. The rest is how many calls do YOU need to let them enjoy dancing it!
