Nice dance...but I hope you don't run it too long!  Maybe a medley is 
in order so you can add a swing or two as the dance progresses.

The pandemic panic could have a big impact on contra dancing.  On 
Friday, here in Felton, CA, we put up a sign on the table at the door 
that said:

For the comfort and safety of others,
as well as your own, Please


Wash Your Hands!


Before entering the dance hall
and upon leaving!


It might have made some folks feel more comfortable.  In spite of the 
disease distress, the dance was full.  Apparently contra dance is not 
yet a victim of the scourge scare.
