29th Indiana Square and Round Dance Convention

11/6/2018

0 Comments

 
I had a fantastic time at the Indiana Square and Round Dance Convention! 

Friday night started out with a great dance by featured caller Tom Miller.  The theme was "Back to the 50's" and I love seeing so many people dressed in 50's attire!  Saturday was full with square and round dancing at all levels, workshops, competition, education sessions, and more! 
Finally we ended a packed weekend with the Sunday morning Gospel Finale! 

The Indiana Convention is one of my favorite times of the year because I get to see so many good friends in one place!  

Join us next year in French Lick for our 30th Convention - November 8, 9 & 10, 2019!  
It's always an honor to get to call with Kristy!  Check out the above video of us calling on Friday night in the main hall just before the President's Ball.

Andrew's Wedding

Just wanted to share a quick family life update for those of you checking in to the Berger Callers blog.  
You may have noticed a new face out on the dance floor and in our family photos.  On August 18, 2018, Andrew and Jillian got married!  It was a beautiful day and so nice to have family and friends come together to celebrate.  The day came together perfectly - weather was lovely (hot but not raining), food was delicious, dancing and music were lively, and there was plenty of laughter to go around.  
Congratulations to the new Mr. and Mrs. Berger!  Welcome to the family, Jillian!

It’s been awhile since the whole gang has been together for a square dance but this weekend we all made it up to Wisconsin for the WIPAC weekend!
​
Andrew and I were both honored to be asked to call!  You can hear one of our tips on this Facebook live video.  A special thanks to Mom for the video.  

We had a blast seeing many familiar faces and meeting many new folks too.  We enjoyed dancing to the many talented callers on staff - they really pulled out the stops on the choreography!
​
A special thanks to Noah Siegmann for inviting us to call and coordinating such a great weekend!  The Siegmann Band put on an incredible gospel concert on Sunday morning as well!   We also had the privilege of calling with their band during the live music hour – what an honor!  ​You can listen to some of their inspirational music by clicking on their photo below.

More than 3,100 dancers attended the 67th National Square Dance Convention in Kansas City, MO.  I was one of those lucky dancers!  The Convention offers a variety of programming for attendees including squares, rounds, lines, contra, education panels, seminars, sewing clinics, and plenty of opportunities for networking with attendees from around the world!   We danced from 10:00 AM to 11:00 PM Thursday through Saturday and had an absolute blast!  I had so much fun seeing old friends and making new ones too!  I've posted a short slideshow below.

The highlight of my weekend was on Saturday night when I had the honor of calling with the Ghost Riders Square Dance Band for the first time!  These guys are incredible and so much fun to work with.  Check out the video below!  

Super thanks to Eric Henerlau for taking the video! ☺

I had a blast calling and dancing at the Wisconsin State Square & Round Dance Convention.  This was my first time calling and dancing in Wisconsin and I felt very welcome!  So glad Mom and Dad let me tag along on their trip! 

This weekend was especially memorable as this was my first time calling with a live band!  Shout out to the Siegmann family for providing outstanding live music for the Inspiration hour and during the last hour of dancing!  Check out the video of my song with the band and some pictures from the weekend below!
