Square dancing is a yearly tradition at the Annual Old Threshers Reunion held in Mount Pleasant, Iowa. The annual reunion lasts five days and ends on Labor Day each year. The purpose of the reunion is to preserve and promote midwestern rural heritage. Square dancing has been a part of the Old Threshers Reunion since shortly after the first reunion 39 years ago. Demonstrations of clogging and square and round dancing take place each day. Area clubs participate in these demos, which are held in various buildings on the reunion grounds. The highlight of the dancing is the evening dances held by the Southeast Iowa Round and Square Dance Associa- tion. These dances, held in the New National Guard Armory, are in their 16th year. They often rekindle friendships by bringing together dancers from across the coun- try. With membership in the association of nearly 700 and many out-of-state dancers in attendance, it's no surprise to see many familiar faces. This past reunion had dancers from North Carolina, Oklahoma and Arkansas. Callers are invited through the SIRSDA. The callers this year were all crowd pleasers. Bob Poyner was the celebrity caller for the Friday evening dance; Jack Berg called on Saturday, and Jim Ford on Sunday. Jack is currently involved with the production of a video promoting square dancing. Jim called his square dance version of the popular California raisin song, Heard It Through the Grapevine. Plans are already in the making for the evening square dances for next year's Old Threshers Reunion. Plan to attend the festivities and become a part of a tradition!

34 Amencan Squareclance, March 1989 I look forward to festivals and special dances, because I will see cleverly de- signed and beautifully made dresses. I saw Ann Bargy across a crowded dance floor at Traverse City wearing this cute outfit. She had started sewing the skirt at 6 A.M. that day, hoping to have it finished for the dance that night, because their group was wearing their club colors. Ann used aqua-blue perma-press cot- ton with her own paper pattern, cutting four circular sections. She added an elastic skirt band with a wrap tie sash. The edging of the hem is white cord trim. The "cute" part is the satin ribbons in red, pink, yellow, white, lavender and navy blue that dot the skirt. Ann formed bows of various colors, then pulled up the skirt here and there, sewing the bows onto these puffs of fabric. She finished the skirt in time for the dance that night and had a conversation piece as well. Ann and Lon belong to the Cherry Knoll Square-Aways, the Dare-All Squares and the Rip Snorters, all in Traverse City, Michigan. Busy dancers!

John and Fran Essex were first in line when a club started at RCAF Station Gimli in 1959, and John, as an airman who had instructing ability, took up the mike.

Margot Gunzenhauser of Logi:ly. Denmark, seta me an adaptation of the oia dance called the Maggie Mixer. She says, "This dance has good flow, is lively, and is often a good closer for a one-night-stand or similar occa- sion." Here is her method of teaching the dance.

ROUTINE: 1-8 Promenade forward 8 steps. 9-16 Dancers join both hands and continue in the promenade direction with 8 sashay steps. 17-32 Repeat the first 16 steps in a clockwise direction. 33-40 Drop partner's hands and do a single file promenade, with the ladies in outside circle moving clockwise, and gents in inside circle moving counterclockwise. 41-48 Turn back and promenade single file the other way, back to your partner. 49-56 Do a left shoulder do-sa-do with partner when you meet, still facing CW/CCW. 57-64 Continue past partner and swing the next person to begin again with this new partner.

There was some confusion in most of the sets on the floor Give your dancers a chance to think this dance through It wasn't too rough getting the first and third gent through the routine, but by the time I got to all four gents the floor took on the ap- pearance of Gettysburg.

March 1989 Bill Johnston of Skippack, Pa., shared a dance with me back in 1986. I have had a lot of fun with it and didn't realize that I hadn't printed it to share with our readers. Bill states that the idea came from Gary Roodman. It is an American Contra/Square Dance for four couples. It begins and ends in a longways set in an alternate duple formation, but includes a square formation in the middle. Those who have danced it with me have cer- tainly enjoyed it DUKE AND DUCHESS OF YORK FORMATION: Four couple longways set, alternate duple. MUSIC: Bill likes to use Scottish: Robert Whitehad, Alexandria Reel, or Schiehallion Gleneagles Dominie. MEASURES: 1-4 All forward and back 5-8 All pass thru, U-turn back (do a little balance step while turning) 9-12 Couples 1 and 2 circle once to the left (couples 3 and 4 same) 13-16 Same couples left-hand star once around 17-20 Same couples half square thru (End with 1W meet 4M on man's side, 1M meet 4W on woman's side. second couple meet in center at top, third couple meet in center at bottom. 21-24 Swing the one you meet, put lady on man's right and face center in square formation. 25-32 Four ladies chain over and back 33-36 Head couples right and left thru 37-40 Head couples ladies chain 41-46 Head couples to the right and circle left once around. 47-48 Side couples arch, heads dive thru, separate around one to a line of four, ready to begin again.

Twenty-two sets of mini-dancers (representing 22 Federation dubs) appeared in the display, created by the Clarks with help from Frank and Sue Cliett, Doug and Joann Wilson, and Albert and Kate Pate. Estelle tells us that the dancers are actually clothes pins with hand-sewn and matched clothing, pipe cleaner arms, fiber-filled, panty-hose- covered heads taped with floral tape, and facial expressions added with needle and thread. Wow! What ingenuity and col- or that created! Another view of these miniature dancers appears on our cover in full color.

American Squaredance. March 1989 103 IF YOU PAID FOR HAM AND EGGS AND ONLY GOT EGGS, WOULDN'T YOU FEEL CHEATED?

How many of you have signed up for a "Square Dance Cruise" but you didn't dance? Almost everybody!! We've talked to hundreds of square dancers who've been on square dance cruises...and they had a wonderful time...but NEVER danced! Why would they call that a square dance cruise??

We hope in the last few months you've seen our ads for the largest square dance cruise in history. We've mailed out over 3000 reservation forms this month, and we have over 20 callers already scheduled!! The first question is always the same—will we REALLY dance?

THIS WILL BE A SQUARE DANCING CRUISE DAILY SCHEDULED DANCING.

And we've made arrangements for the entire ship to dance under the stars in the port of San Juan, Puerto Rico!

Why can we do this, and nobody else can?? 1. We have an outstanding relationship with Carnival as we've taken large groups on their ships in the past. 2. We have just returned from a cruise on the Jubilee where we chose locations for dancing while we're at sea. 3. We will be accompanied by our own personal Carnival rep on the cruise to assure us of maximum cooperation from the cruise staff and to insure our dancing enjoyment.

WE WANT YOU TO BE PART OF OUR FUN, and if you love to dance, you should expect nothing less on a "Square Dance Cruise." November 5, 1989 Ask about caller/leader incentives & early booking discounts!
