September 1988 eptember has rolled around again. S Square Dance Month is upon us. Many clubs and associations have ordered the LEGACY promotion packets over the last two years, and we feel confi- dent that those who implemented several of the promotional ideas were rewarded with increased class memberships. For most of 1988, we have included in these pages stories of square dancers helping other square dancers, both friends in home clubs and strangers on the road. We have highlighted occasions where the special bond among those in the activity has been in evidence. We have experienced again, just a few days before this writing, an example of long distance friendships. A caller and taw from southernmost Florida visited two of their club's dancers in northern New York, to join in good conversation. and took an hour off to come by and have By the way, a good friend from many coffee with us at Silver Bay.

This is not just because of the friends may send greetings to Ichiro at magazine; many dancers who attend 3-38-3 Daita, Setagaya-ku, Tokyo 155, dance conventions and/or seminars have Japan.

Jo Jan Nunley reminds us that the school bells of BY-LINE September are calling us to another season of fun in square dancing. Follow- < ing through on the "Co-Editorial," Beverly Ruuth describes a friend who is no longer with us in a story that will remind many of us of dancers we have known. Gloria Kilner, in her round dance newsletter, Grapevine, published her Sherlock Holmes tale, a good one for both round and square dancers. Did you ever stop to think that you miss opportunities for friendship by not attending your association meetings? Marilyn Niebart, co-producer of Square Dance Videos, sent us the article on her friend and caller, Manny Amor, a man of great humor and many hats! Finally, don't miss "Teen Tempo" by Karen Saxton. Karen originally wrote about this problem in May, 1987, and sent her follow-up after the Anaheim Convention. We hope it will generate some discussion. Teens are the dancers of the present and the future. Do we want to shut them out? Let's hear from you! Happy Square Dance Month to all of you from the staff at ASD! 1 ASDS 89 26.
