[Squaredancing] Truly wonderful square-dancing promotio

Tue Dec 13 16:01:45 EST 2005

Bob and Vel, 

    Thank you for answering about the clothes.  Just so there is no
confusion, Jim Mackzo did not ask the question.  I asked but kept Jim's
email under mine, which undoubtedly caused confusion.  I apologize.  

    I hope  the demonstration at the concert has the effect you wish
for.

Mary Lou  Maag

	Hello Jim,
	      You asked about the square dance attire used on the Lorie
Line Holiday Concert-- all four couples were dressed in  white, the
girls had the fluffy skirts, the men were in suits and hats. They did a
wonderful job on calls such as tea cup chain, grand square, alamen thar,
right and left grand etc, they wanted long count calls so the
host/caller wouldn't be talking very much. Of course show people catch
on fast and they really made it look easy and fun. We are all hoping
this will create a new interest in square dancing and all the fun we
have been having.                            
	     It's been nice talking to you,
	               Bob & Vel Wolff

wearing.

			Received information from Duane and Marilyn
Olson - Presidents of the Square Dance Federation of Minnesota, Inc. of
a unique promotion of Square Dancing.  We felt it worthy to make all

			    Just wanted to pass along the information in
the e-mail below.  What a unique promotion of square dancing.  As we
understand it this same show will continue until Christmas at various
locations around the Midwest (Mankato, MN; Denver, CO;  Rapid City, SD;
Bismarck, ND; Fargo, ND; Sioux City, IA; Omaha, NE; Des Moines, IA;
Milwaukee, WI) to name a few.  As far as we know this same square dance
routine will be included in all of those shows.

			Thanks to Bob and Velma Wolff,  thirty-six
Westonka Whirlers saw an incredible endorsement and promotion of square
dancing this afternoon!  Where?  Lorie Line and her Pop Chamber
Orchestra presented her 2005 Holiday Extravaganza at the State Theater
in Minneapolis.  What a show!  For two-and-a-half hours, the sold-out
theater clapped, cheered, and rang bells as Lorie presented her theme
this year:  "My Favorite Things."

			Near the end of the first half, Lorie formed a
square and they squared danced to a Christmas tune!  Yes, they actually
did a square dance with Tim, her husband and narrator of the show,
calling the dance as well as calling the dancers the Westonka Whirlers!
When he called "teacup chain," we broke into cheers!   The performers on
stage knew the "real"  Westonka Whirlers were there!  

			How did they learn to square dance?

			On the back of the program, Lori listed a
special thanks "To the real Westonka Whirlers who taught us how to
square dance one beautiful fall morning.  That was a very memorable
day."

			In actuality, it wasn't the Whirlers who taught
them how to dance--it was Dick Rueter.  The Whirlers provided a square
so he could work out a routine for them and have some dancers to perform
his choreography at Lorie's dance studio and then be "angels" for them.
We had a ball!

			And now 47 audiences will see an example of
square dancing that is professionally done and looks like so much FUN!
