President’s LetterWell, we’re at it again. Since the 2016 end-‐of-‐year banquet our energies have been spent on scheduling contests for this year. We presently have ten contests on the calendar and another in the wings. Our first contest is in Charleston (Low Country Shag Classic) March 31-‐April 01. The contest schedule as we know it right now is listed elsewhere in the newsleLer. (There are some changes relaNve to the iniNal calendar sent out earlier.)
CSA is planning another scoring workshop this year to explain the scoring system, how placements are calculated and why you see what you do on your score sheets, and a judging workshop primarily to give an overview of the five categories on which we’re judged.
We have several proposals we’re going to study in an effort to make CSA stronger including sponsorships with increased payouts per division, more adverNsing coverage and possibly capping the number of contests per year so we can concentrate on increasing dancer aLendance at those contests. All these issues will involve a great deal of planning, discussion and ulNmately input from the CSA membership itself, so be paNent…………….we’ll do what we can as Nme permits.
One change this year is our switch to using flash drives (thumb drives/zip drives/flash sNck……whatever) in lieu of CDs for our music. It seems with technology running rampant, some contest venues no longer have CD capability. There will be an effort to not only list the DJ for each contest on the flyer, but to find out prior to the contest which format the DJ prefers. We will try to keep the membership informed of the preferred (or necessary) format before each contest. Butch Metcalf is DJing our first contest in Charleston, so bring your music on a flash drive (thumb drive/zip drive/flash sNck……whatever).
If you haven’t renewed your CSA membership by the Nme you read this, get out your checkbook ‘cause it’s gonna cost you more -‐ $30 per person. And remember non-‐members pay more this year to dance: $5 Amateur, $10 Novice and $20 Pro/Senior Pro. So, get your membership renewed and save yourself some money in the long run. You can pay via PayPal or give/mail your payment directly to Patricia Joyce. ApplicaNons should be given/mailed to Patricia. (Board members have been instructed NOT to handle payments or applicaNons.)
CSA was, as usual, well represented at Preliminaries for the NaNonal Shag Dance Championships this past weekend. Thanks to all who parNcipated and good luck to those who will be dancing in the finals 09-‐11 Mar17.
Remember, keep your basics in good working order and everything else will follow…………..
