• National Squares

    From Daryl Stout@954:895/7 to All on Sun Aug 7 00:08:04 2022
    For those who want the latest information on upcoming National Square
    Dance Conventions, always held the last week of June each year, National Squares magazine has the information you need.

    The magazine is now ONLINE ONLY at:

    http://www.nsdcnec.com

    Just look for the "National Squares Online" link. While those who
    don't have internet access are possibly "out in the cold", by having
    it online, the publication no longer has to worry about postage costs,
    plus the publication is published MONTHLY instead of quarterly, and it
    is FREE to everyone to download and read. You will need the Adobe
    Acrobat Reader to view or print the file, once you have downloaded it.

    The only month it is NOT published is July...since July's a transition
    month between the one National Square Dance Convention (NSDC) that was
    held in late June...and the start of final preparations for the next
    NSDC to be held in late June the following year.

    The publication has, among other items, for the National Square Dance Convention:

    * Registration statistics by state.
    * A Registration form for the current convention, and "converting early
    bird registrations".
    * Early Bird Registrations for future conventions.
    * Picking up your convention badge at the convention.
    * Emergency Information, with special numbers to be used only during that
    particular convention.
    * Lodging and Cost Information (on the back of the registration form).
    * RV Camping Information.
    * Shuttle Bus Transportation (purchase of a bus pass STRONGLY RECOMMENDED).
    * Facilities where the dancing, forums, bid session, etc. will be held.
    * Overview of programming, forums, and vendors (complete listings are in
    the actual convention program book, which can sell out before the
    convention).
    * Parade Of States.
    * Exhibition Groups.
    * Fashion Show.
    * Showcase Of Ideas.
    * Special Event (Wednesday night before the convention).
    * Trail In (dances on the way to the Convention).
    * Trail End Dances (dances held after the Special Event on Wednesday night).
    * Youth Hall (dancers under 18).
    * Singles Hall (unmarried dancers, or dancers without partners).
    * Bid Session (where those cities wishing to host future conventions make
    their presentations to the National Executive Committee and interested
    dancers...a list of future conventions and those intending to bid is
    listed below).
    * Education Panels.
    * Tours and Other Information.
