My turn to post about the fun we had at the Tennessee State Convention! I can't even begin to pick a favorite moment from our time in Gatlinburg! Here are just a few highlights.

Shoutout to the Illinois Square Dance Convention on a great event this weekend! I came home with just a few photos but many more great memories! Just wrapped up an amazing weekend at the 73rd National Square Dance Convention in Milwaukee! Huge thanks to the team who made it all happen! A shoutout to our volunteers, Frank Elisa, and our office assistant, Renee for staffing the CALLERLAB Booth throughout the week. They worked long hours and made my life so much easier. And, of course, we appreciate everyone who stopped by the booth to volunteer. We couldn't have done it without you all. It was great to visit with so many of our members and supporters. WE ARE CALLERLAB! It was a whirlwind of fun, dancing, and catching up with some of my favorite people (I took just a "few" selfies this week...). I'll need just a couple days to recover... but I'm already looking forward to the 74TH NATIONAL SQUARE DANCE CONVENTION - June 25 - 28, 2025 - Shreveport, LA! #73nsdc #74nsdc #CALLERLAB It's always an honor to call with such hard working and talented folks. I couldn't be more proud of the work they do and their passion for our activity and for Callerlab, the International Association of Square Dance Callers.
Can you identify all the costumes at the Star Righters Square Dance Club Halloween Dance? Good times!
The 72nd National Square Dance Convention® was one for the books. Sharing some sweet memories from Mobile, AL. We danced, we played, and we had a darn good time! Thanks to everyone who made this week possible! #72nsdc It was an honor to share the stage with these talented callers at the CALLERLAB fundraising dance in Texas this weekend! These guys do great work for our organization and the square dance activity!

Just a few of the many memories from the 48th CALLERLAB Convention! I had the pleasure of chatting with so many of our members this week but I was terrible at taking pictures....can you believe that? Another huge shoutout to the CALLERLAB staff for making this week possible!
#callerlab2023 I recently had the opportunity to be a guest on a new podcast! I had fun chatting with Charlie Petrea. We met at a Caller School in 2019. On the podcast, we chatted about how I got started square dancing and calling. We also talked about my work with Callerlab, the International Association of Square Dance Callers. You can watch the YouTube video below or check it out on Spotify. 21 squares of people got together to celebrate the amazing calling career of Wade Driver today at the Swingtime Center Square Dance Hall in Fort Worth, TX. I attended a caller school 11 years ago with Ken Ritucci & Wade Driver. If you want to take a trip down memory lane, you can read more about that trip in my blog post from 2012: Jubilee Callers School. In 2021, I was incredibly honored to join the calling staff on Rhythm Records that Wade owns and produces. It has been my privilege to work with Wade on 2 different singing calls on Rhythm. Wade is retiring from active calling to focus more on his music production. It was so special to see so many people get together to celebrate his amazing calling career! I can't imagine a better way to celebrate such an incredible person! Congratulations, Wade!
Happy St. Patrick's Day from the friendly dancers at Frontier Squares! This was my first time calling in the Cincinnati area. We had a great crowd and an absolute blast! Thanks to Marianne for sharing the video.
Today was a special day here in Indiana! We had a great turnout and a fantastic time at the fundraising dance for the Raleighs. So proud of how the square dance family comes together to help out. All proceeds collected went to the Raleigh family to help support Kati during her battle with stage 4 cancer.
It was great to see so many friends at the Star Righters Christmas Dance! I absolutely love Christmas (and consequently, I love Christmas music too)! I even convinced Andrew to sing a few with me. My sweet friend Grace even joined in on the Christmas carols! Thanks to everyone who came out!
The 32nd Indiana Square & Round Dance Convention is one for the books! As always, there was no shortage of dancing, calling, laughter, fun, and just a few shenanigans. I was so busy most of the weekend that I didn't take many pictures but these are just a glimpse into the fun we had!
Thanks to everyone who worked so hard to put on such a great Convention! Already looking forward to next year! |
