"A letter from the SEMCA president"
June 19, 2020

     Dramatic changes have occurred in the Square & Round community in this “New Reality”. When we will be returning to our “New Normal” Square & Round dance schedule is still an unknown but we MUST be optimistic and plan our dance schedules as usual. Currently there are Six Square dance clubs, One Round dance club & Two Associations who are dues paying members. The dues pay for the insurance policy which covers each member. NO dues are used to cover the cost of the SEMCA Calendar. Our goal is to keep SEMCA solvent so our clubs & associations will have reliable & affordable insurance coverage.

     There will be a major change, the paper SEMCA Calendar will be discontinued. It has become cost prohibited but all is not lost. The internet age has saved us!! All clubs have websites, we have a fantastic SEMCA website maintained by Rick Hutchinson “THANK YOU RICK” & we have Where’s The Dance. There may be other sites I’m not aware of.

     In closing let us not forget to thank all the callers & cuers who are true professionals at every function. We must continue to promote our activity so Square & Round dancing will rebound.  This is a group effort if you have any questions, concerns or reasonable suggestions feel free to email me I will share them with the E-Board and other members.

See you in a square,

Don Davis
