One day I'll post a beginner's introduction to country dancing.  Meanwhile,
here is the schedule and contact information.  Note the Wild Asparagus workshop
in Hamilton this Friday and Saturday.  You may want to call 416-522-0306,
416-388-2247, or 416-628-2488 or roy@zooks.eng.mcmaster.ca to see if you can 
still get in.  By the way, if you have a UNIX system you can just stick this
in your calendar file and get notified of dances as they happen. 
Have Fun.  Look cool.  And dance to the music.
