Date: August 2nd 2010

The jam-packed FootFall 2010 schedule is posted on our website http://footfalldance.com, so please go take a look! Contra, squares, and waltz, plus a Kerry set, Dutch Crossing, English Country Dancing... There's additional information about each workshop on the "Workshops" page, along with links to videos. A few additions: Melissa Running will play nyckelharpa for the hambo workshop, and Night Watch will play for the 4:30 open waltz/tango/swing session.

If you've been intending to sign up but haven't yet, we thought we should remind you that there's an additional $25 late fee for registrations received online after midnight Friday, August 20 or postmarked Saturday, August 21st or later. So go to the website (admire the schedule, drool over the menus, look through the photos), print out the registration form, find your checkbook, an envelope, and a stamp and get your paperwork in the mail. Or do it the easy way - sign up from the website using PayPal.

If you'd like us to send you a printed flyer (or if you'd like some flyers to put out at your local dance), please email us your postal address.

If you wish to apply for a kitchen or sweeping fellowship, we have slots still open, plus space for one alternate, but these slots have been going quickly. So please contact us by email if you're interested. There's a very substantial reduction in registration (to only $120) for dancers who sign up as kitchen or sweeper fellows.

FootFall does gender balance, and we have several graceful and energetic (and patient) female dancers who need to be paired off with an equal number of graceful and energetic male dancers. If you are of the male persuasion (genus procrastinatii) and haven't gotten around to filling out the form and sending it in, please gracefully approach your keyboard, energetically fill in the on-line form, and register already!! C'mon, guys. Sheesh.

Ladies, although we do gender balance, so far (3 years now) we've always been able to accept everyone - but it would be helpful if you can register with a gent.

Other questions? Send us an email, or call (10 am to 10 pm) the Registrar, Jerry Blum, at 703-978-2774.
