For Square Dancers, Santa Clause, lives' in the heart of the numerous square dance events, many of which are used to raise money for charitable causes. For Square Dancers, many of us just find dance parties and go to just enjoy ourselves. For many of us we put on dance parties for our churches, synagogues and other The Wisconsin ROQ places of worship, so that people who December, January, & have never Square Danced before can February enjoy our activity with a one night party. For many of us it is just a time of Phase II worship, celebration and reflection. Footsteps - Ph H TS When we consider Christmas gifts, I Choreo: Tony Speranzo ask you to consider time.

Record: MCA 52737 American Square Dance, December 2009 CALLERLA I I) VIEWPOINTS By Tom Rudebock Basic and Mainstream Teaching Order In August 2009 the CALLERLAB Mainstream Committee approved a new teaching order for the Basic and Mainstream Program. The Basic Mainstream Program is the cornerstone of the activity. It is, however, more than a listing of calls — it is also a recommended teaching order. The recommended teaching order is still only a recommendation. Most experi- enced callers will continue to teach using their own proven methods. Many of the personal changes callers have made over the years in their own teaching have been addressed in this new document. On the other hand, someone new to calling or a caller teaching for the first time now has a progression list to follow with many axpciia1n,ul t..4 GI b providing input to shape and mold it. A brief reflection of the past provides some insight to the new Recommended Teaching Order. In 1974 CALLERLAB adopted the "Sets In Order Basic 50 Program" of calls as well as the "Extended 75". In 1977, Basic 1-38 was ap- proved. Basic 1-34, Extended 35-47, and Mainstream 46-48 were approved in 1980. In 1981, Basic and Extended Basic were merged. As the activity evolved so did the program list. Some calls were dropped and others were added, but not always impacting the teaching order in the best way. This standardization helped the activityin_ a. tremendous way and allowed dancers around the United States_ and the world to dance together. Dancers and callers could finally travel from dance to dance with the same expectations of fun and fellowship. In 2004 the Mainstream Committee agreed to address some teaching order problems. A focus group was formed with the desire of compiling a more concise teaching order. An agreement was made to compile a document rationalizing the steps to be taken in forming a teaching order. The result of this study is a wonderful document titled Teaching Order Design Principles (www.callerlab.org/ DancePrograms/DanceProgramDocuments/tabid/610/grm2catid/30/ Default.aspx). Every caller that teaches square dancing should read and apply it to their teaching. As a result of this research the new Basic Mainstream Teaching Order Recom- mendation was developed. The Basic Program is now separated into Parts A and If you don't see your festival or convention information listed in the What's Ahead section, send us a flyer or email! We will include any full day or weekend dance that we feel might be of national or international interest. And it's even FREE! American Square Dance, December 2009 B.
