We want to thank everyone for
the love and support you gave

What is a Square Dancer?
A Square Dancer is a person who knows his
left from his right, but occasionally forgets it.
A Square Dancer is someone who has learned
to do as he is told (by the caller), but doesn't always do it.
He is fanatical in his search for a good time,
traveling miles in all kinds of weather, going
places he would never go otherwise, spending all
night on his feet which were killing him at work,
and smiling happily all the time.
A Square Dancer speaks a language all his
own. He calls his partner his taw, his honey, his
date, darling or pretty little thing, and he promenades, sashays, weaves, circulates, dances, circles around the ring, circle or set.
He learns his dancing thru and thru: right and
left thru, pass thru, turn thru, step thru, barge
thru - and he must be agile enough to do such
unlikely things as box the gnat, shoot the star,
slip the clutch, pickup up a girl or shuck the corn.
If this description fits you, don't worry. Although it is practically incurable, this disease is
not at all harmful, and most square dancers have
a strong desire to infect other members of the
community.

Glad to be a Caller
SW-SDAW Tips & Cues Summer 2012

Nasser Shukayr
Callers receive immediate
worldwide RECOGNITION. You don't even have
to TELL people you're a
caller. Somehow, they already KNOW. It's MAGIC.
Let's suppose you're gonna
dial 1 (800) 634-6753, which
is the reservations phone
number for the Riviera Hotel
in Las Vegas. Let's suppose
you're gonna reserve a $79 a
night room for the upcoming
CALLERLAB convention,
April 16 thru 19. The hotel is
already gonna KNOW what
you ARE, WITHOUT your
having to TELL them!!
Yes, it's true. The first thing
you'll hear is this message:
--> THANK YOU FOR
CALLING.
Now, HOW did they
KNOW you're a CALLER? There's only ONE possible explanation: MAGIC!
--> WE'RE BUSY HELPING
OTHER CALLERS
It makes sense. The CALLERLAB convention will be
at the Riviera Hotel. Other
callers are reserving their
rooms too, so that's why
they're busy helping your
fellow callers.
--> YOU ARE A VERY IMPORTANT CALLER
Ah yes. They know that
callers like to feel IMPORTANT.
--> YOUR CALL MAY BE
RECORDED
Absolutely. Callers are recorded quite often, for various reasons. All callers
KNOW this. It's amazing
that the Riviera Hotel would
know this, but somehow
they KNOW.
They acknowledge CALLERS. That's one of the main
benefits of being a caller. It's
the ONLY profession that
gives you immediate worldwide recognition.
