[Squaredancing] National Convention

[dave.hinde]

Portland is one city that I'd want to go back to.  The area out there is
beautiful.  I spent 10 days in the Northwest and could easily spend another
10.  
 
The convention itself went very well.  It was a vast improvement over last
year in Denver.  It's unfortunate that many stayed away because of bad
experiences last year.  
 
There was also a tremendous increase in the number of solo dancers.  They
had ordered 1000 solo ribbons and ran out very early.  It seemed there were
just as many solos without ribbons, or with makeshift ribbons, as those that
had the ribbons.  Next year I hope they have 2000!

This is the first year in 12 years that we have missed the National Square
Dance Convention.  The only reason that we did not go is because it was
being held in Portland, OR.  It was held in Portland in 1994 and I didn't
want to spend my money going to a place we have already been.  The same
thing holds for the next 2 years; San Antonio and Charlotte.

 

I plan on going in 2008.  

 

I was just wondering who won the bid for 2009.  If anybody on here is back
from the National in Portland please let us know who won.

 

Thanks,

 

 

Bruce
