An unusual evening in Miami where new people showed up all evening long, making things a little difficult. It's still the case, though, that the Barnacle dance attracts the youngest crowd of any of the dances. I don't know that the Barnacle dancers actually translate into many (or any) regulars, but if we could figure out how the Barnacle dance attracts younger people and do the same at the other dances, we might start to create a new generation of contra dancers.
It was a pretty low turn-out for Miami. I expected a lot more considering it was relatively cool and close to the snowbird season. Too close to Thanksgiving, perhaps, but that's always true of November.
I will soon have a website where you can purchase tickets for the New Year's Eve dance. I talked to the scheduler for the Woman's Club and no one else has asked about renting it, so I'm going ahead with the dance. Please sign up!
