Adam your sharing today (and watching that video) brought back memories of being in fourth grade and living in Tennessee… part of our school P.E. curriculum was learning how to “square dance.” I fondly remember those lessons and Buffalo Gals was my all time favorite. I still sometimes say to my sisters when we’re driving back to one of our houses, “promenade back home we go!” Thanks for the trip down memory lane, especially since I live in (way) Northern California and won’t be able to make your barn dance. All the best in keeping up the beautiful work you’re doing in the world!

Looks like so much fun. Even over in Oz these barn dances were happening a generation ago. I remember us kids having to sleep outside in the station wagon while Mum and Dad enjoyed these antics at the town hall. And a lot of these dances feel familiar so I must have participated in some when I was younger, 40 years ago.

Have a great time and hope all your prep work goes smoothly and safely
