Speaking of QUARTERLY SELECTIONS, weunderstand that Pat ty Vhi te 's ar t ic le on'Cou r tesy ' i n t he l as t i s sue has beenpublished in this monLh's AUERICAN SQUAREn"ICE. Bravo! Pat ty . And speaking again about. i c i es - we l l no t qu i t e po l i c i es - t heBoard is cont inuing thei r pro j ect ofdeveloping a comprehensive st ructure to coverthe work and jobs requi red to keep WSDrunning. I t is not that the Club is notrunning well: we have a very active dance andsocia l program scheduled through 1990 andbeyond, we have event coordinators, ca l lersand teachers in p lace for a l l the maiorevents, and there real ly has been l i t t le" i fany problems. But we do need to d is t r ibutethe responsib i l i ty more to prevent burnoutsand to ensure a healthier and even moreenjoyable Club. We hope the membership wi l lsupport the Board in th is pro j ect - p leaselet us know any of your ideas.
Momentum for our ne$r class continues tobui1d.

June 13th is coming soon, soplease te l l your f r iends and coworkers andeven complete st rangers to come and g ive usa whir l ! The f i rs t two n ights are a lwaysf r e e .

HOT AUGUST STARS
Seneral years ago, WSD members gatheredtogether to make NAMES PROJECI Qultf panelsmemorializing six of our members. lt was nice to learnthat those panels r,r€re most recently displa@ at theSFO lnternational terminal during the recent AIDSConference in the city. FREEMAN is putting together atime and place for us to u,,ork together this Fall on quiltpanels for BOB BELIyILLE, CARL HAMMOND, BOBMANN, PAJL ZIMMERMANN and others who ue hare in
e past far years. We hope you'll help him with thispmject and ule hope to see you at a \ery special dancecoming up on Satuday Argust 18th when rae rememberour friends fiom the past ard naise funds for the future. Allthe details are on a ffyer in this Ns,roletter.
TIM and TODD celebnated their First Anniversaryand one year as SF ReskJents - Congrads! and Albanybloss is our gain! Speclal Stans go to BIL and KENT whovrere the Ewnt Coordinators at the delicious (strat,berriesand the callerl) Strarberry Dance, to GREG our tourgufde to Angel lsland (where o.ver 2 squarcs of neu/ lolksloinsd us for a wry pleasant day), to RON who got us upard mwing for the AIDS WALK (could someone pleasebring Ron a picture of what a lion actually looks like?!)and to ROD who whizzed and pasted and cut and sryyedrogether the ns,v WSD carry bag (accessories are soooimportant). lt was great to see EDDIE home from thehospital and back at WSD and thanks to ELLIOT who hashelped EDDIE out and shored us all that 'thatb whatfriends arc for'.

TRIMESTER GENERAL MEETING
(Reprinted from WSD Today! Aug 6, 1990 by Freeman)
This past Wednesday at the Trimester GeneralMeeting, the Board of Directors presented acomprehensiw prognm for realignment of administrativeresponsibilities. This poject has been about a lear indaelopment aM is the results of an analysis done by thesq/en cunent Board members and Patty white, eachreprcsenting a different class and thus seven differentperspecti\€s of the Club.
A resdution was adopted to begin implementingthe job descriptions and establishing a system of sixadministratiue committees (or categories). Also adoptedwas a resolution for further danelopment of a system ofrecognition for contributions of administnative efforts. Aconsensus was not reached to adopt a resolution torequest the soon-to-be-elected Board to study By-t-aasamendments which uould restructure the process bywhich the Boad of Directors and Mministrator aredetermined. There was a good and healthy discussionconcerning the third resdution, but the prarailing thoughtnas that there should be no consideration at this time foraltering Board elections. More information will beforthcoming as the job descriptions are finalized and thecommittee structures are begun to be put into pace.

Unfortunately I lissed the dance asvell aa a fev class nights inAugust, ry parents vere out here fora visit and so I vas busy being tourgfuide (and clerningf the bousel ) r rndIrr not up to date thig ronth onrecognieing all vho helped late ourlugrrst echedule 'rl eDjoyalrle oDe. 8oherats a big Thanl You to one rndal.l !

In closing fr l l tala off rynevsletter oditor hat rnd put on tylclninistrator hat. As the currentBoardrs tenure dravs to a close Iuould lile to say publicly and vithall sincerity tbat it bas been oneof the f iaest Boards in f8Drghistory. I tbint tbe prinary reasonfor this Yas a real attitude ofnaturity: no one uas interested inpouer, pol i t ica or pett inessi butvery nuch interested in bringing thehighest level of quality (doing theright things the right yay) to ourclass, social rnd dancingactivit ies. This type of posit iveperspective is essential for agroving, healthy and fun cl.ub. fiththe advent of our neu Board, our 19job descriptions and our nevconnittee structure ue can all lookforrard to 1990- 1991 as a year ofexpanding opportunities rnd fun.
After tuo yeara oD the Board, it istine for le to take aone tine offand turn to gone projects that havebeen on hold for too long. But likenany club lanlrgis, I uill continueto be active :nd involved in r8D.. in fact IrI l aee you nert lonth inthis apace as the nevsletter editor.

The Welcome Potluck Reception for the Orange '90 classwas a delightful evening of good food and good company.In their inimitable style, class memb€rs showcd up in lorceand were ready to party! Our thanks to all club membersfor their potluck contributions, to ANNA for her deliciousroast and to ED & PAUL, our gracious hosts, for ther.' t. The line for dinner stretched all the way down the.rlr but THAIS the cat managed to position herself
p€rmanently at the head of the table. After dinnerve allretired to the living roor.r and watched C&C STUDiOS'
"CAZ: Heroes & Friends". It brought back fond memoriesof a great retreat. . .
CAMP CAZ is a month old but we would like to mentionthosc who worked extra hard to make it such a successfultime: ANNA and GARY - camp counselor and assistant;BILL EYLER - featured caller; EDDIE S, Bill W, CAP,RUSS, and ANNA - workshops; ANDY for helping outwith the calling, especially pool side; MAX for keepingtrack of all the finances; LANDRA for transporting ourcaller, Bill, while he was in town and to BIL & KENT wboprovided housing. SCOTT & JOHN for transporting theequipment and to everyone who provided transportationand made it possible for others to attend; CAP fordesigning and arranging for those special T's; CHRIS,CLAIRE, KEWN and LARRY for producing the "FamilyFugue"; GARY & JESSIE, and KAORI for cabin judging;
The WOOD family for the pajama party, GOLD RUSH forMargaritaville; the BI{ADLEY lamily for "Promenade to aParty"; to WELLA BALSAM aka BILL HOUGHTONfrom our sister city club, Squares Across the Border, formotorcycling down here to help with the entertainment; andof course to MOTHER NATURE for the superb weather. .. my apologies to anyone that I missed. A special thanks goto the Sacramento Folks who were very supportive and asalways lots of fun - you can read some fun reviews of theretreat in the CAPITAL CITY SQUARES Newsletter andin the next issue of WSD's "Quarterly Seleclions".
