I've been calling intermittently since July 2011. Currently, I am the interim caller for the Dixie Square Thrus in Sylacauga, AL twice a month and call random tips at local clubs at the request of the club caller. I truly love square dancing and calling! The people I have encountered are amazing and very supportive! Working together, it is my desire that the square dancing community will expand and become an activity that people recognize, participate in, and enjoy on a grander scale! There are so many benefits of square dancing, and I'll consider it my personal goal to do my part in promoting this wonderful form of dance!

I have been calling for 25+ years. I call for 2 clubs on a weekly basis. I have taught in the continuing education program on several occasions. I do one night stands without the help of experienced dancers. Although I do not call the Advanced program, the wife and I did dance it for a period of time. I entertain at retirement homes by singing classic country songs for those beyond their dancing years. I believe a square dance is as much a social event as a dance event, and a square dance club should be part of your personal support group.

Bob & Lynn Van Atta began their round dancing experience in 1983 under the leadership of George & Louise Van Courtland of Lafayette, LA. They became leaders for Les Danseurs Round Dance Club after the death of George Van Courtland in 1884.

In addition to cueing at local & state festivals in Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama, Georgia, Florida & Texas, the Van Attas were on the staffs of Fun Valley in Colorado for 2 years, English Mountain in Pigeon Forge, TN for 5 years, the Fontana Fall Festival in North Carolina for 7 years, and the Mid-America Festival in Louisville, KY for 4 years.

They have choreographed a number of dances and two of them, Whipped Cream and Whiskey Under the Bridge, were named "Round of the Quarter" by Round-A-Lab, the International Association of Round Dance Teachers.

After Lynn retired from her teaching position, Bob sold their boarding kennel and they spent the next 7 years on the road, working for KOA (Kampgrounds of America) all over the United States.

In January 2011, Bob & Lynn purchased a home in Green Valley, AZ and have gone back to the activity that was so much a part of their lives - Square and Round Dancing. They cue for the Green Valley Squares and the Western Whirlers square dance clubs. They also teach in their own club, Les Danseurs. They cue and teach five times a week in Tucson and Green Valley in Arizona.

"Square dancers and Round dancers are very special people and we have always felt at home, no matter where we have traveled. What a GREAT activity!"

Traveling allows us to continue meeting new friends in the Square & Round Dance world and we would appreciate your consideration as cuers for any of your weekly club dances or your special events.

Thanks for your time and interest. -- Bob & Lynn Van Atta

I started my club, Bluebird Squares, in 2017 in Bryant. We started dancing in June 2019 at the Saline County Fairgrounds, Benton, Arkansas. We are a very casual club that meets the third Saturday of the month (with a few exceptions). My main intent is for the dancers to come and have fun! I do mostly singing calls which my group says they enjoy. My music includes, but certainly isn't limited to: Dancing on the Ceiling, Black Velvet, Storms Never Last, Old Time Rock N Roll, Pink Cadillac, Never Been to Spain and many others. We also do line dancing between tips and I have taught them many line dances. I love line dancing almost as much as square dancing! I believe square dancing should be a time to get away from all the problems and just have fun and laugh!

I have a degree as a "Recording Engineering." I have a small sound reinforcement system but love to help out doing sound reinforcement. I love to do "one night stands."

I am a "traditional" dance caller. I lead and call contras and squares in what's dubbed the "traditional" style. I am not a member in of Callerlab, and I don't participate in the class orientation of the Modern Western Square Dance organizations. I call in the "all are welcome" style of including a walkthrough of each dance prior to calling it to music. Also, I only work with live music. If the budget is small, I provide the music for my calling by playing fiddle. Though I follow that age old tradition of fiddling and calling, I do use a PA... I started calling in 1984, became a regular caller in San Luis Obispo, CA in 1986. I love calling dances for experienced contra dancers as well as callers for large groups of non-dancers at weddings, parties, and any kind of get-together.

My purpose in calling dances is to create events that bring people together, build community and teach traditional values and etiquette. I host and call dances for Civil War Balls that are primarily for families and youths. I also call dances for hoedowns, weddings, school programs, living history reenactments and other private events. My focus is on historical dances, so I am not your typical modern-day square dance caller or round dance caller. I combine various quadrilles, circle dances, longways dances along with some polkas and waltzes to create unique historical events.

Doug is available to fill in at square dance clubs in the San Francisco Bay Area. He thoroughly enjoys filling in for fellow callers so he can meet other square dancers. He calls levels from Beginners thru Advanced and especially enjoys teaching beginner classes. Doug's specialty is One-Night-Stands (aka easy-level parties for non-square dancers) for large or small groups at events like birthday or anniversary parties, wedding receptions, school and church fundraisers, fraternity/sorority parties, corporate gatherings and fraternal organization and retirement community events. Most parties are focused on square dancing and line dancing, both of which are Doug's areas of expertise, and he has the ability to generate great enthusiasm. Doug's Sinatra-like voice can bring the evening to a close with relaxing dance tunes from the era of Frank Sinatra and Dean Martin, so everyone enjoys some soothing slow dancing after an evening of lively action. He has received numerous compliments on his song selection and singing from the heart. Doug can also do "Square Dance Demos", providing the dancers, the music and the calling. He has also been a recording artist with Rawhide Records, and is a member of the Square Dance Callers' Association of Northern California.

Square Dancing is one of the most entertaining and health promoting activities to be found. I am passionate about its virtues and have been for over 40 years. My primary mission is to educate, entertain, and expound the value of Square Dancing to everyone. In Paradise, California I call for the Calvet Ridge Runners, a weekly workshopping Plus Club, and have begun a Community Dance Program to support promotion and recruiting and because it's FUN! I consider myself an excellent One Night Party dance caller, as I have worked hard to perfect the art over the last 20 years.

I'm a firm believer that "Everyone can dance!" and I make it my mission to bring dancing to groups of non-dancers, wherever they are. I specialize in one-off events for beginners, e.g., wedding receptions, birthday parties, bat mitzvah celebrations, church and community events, events for students, anywhere people want a good time dancing together. I'm the house dance caller for the monthly 3rd Saturday barn dances at Pie Ranch. Most of the time I bring a live band with me to my events.

Andrith and Michael are relatively new to cueing, but have been bringing their style to round dancing since 2012. They are the club caller and cuer for the Monarch Mavericks of Salida, Colorado, and enjoy working for clubs and events in Colorado, New Mexico and surrounding states. Their round dance style is "Dance the Fantasy," and they work to make the music visible on the floor. While Michael makes sense of the technology and partners in the teaching and demos, Andrith's lyrical cueing is unique, probably stemming from decades of singing in choirs. Their joy in the dance is obvious, and they bring humor and verve to a dance floor. Andrith and Michael take greatest pleasure in cueing for square dance events at square dance level. ROUND 'EM UP!

Naaman Moorehouse started his calling career in 1977 while living in Honolulu, Hawaii. Throughout the next 16 years he organized and maintained three dance clubs in Honolulu and was a frequent guest caller around the islands. After relocating to the mainland, he organized and maintained dance clubs in Davenport and Preston, Iowa and was a frequent guest caller for dances in Illinois, Wisconsin, Iowa and Missouri. Several years ago Naaman relocated to western Colorado and declared himself to be retired from the work demands which kept him on the road for so many years. It was soon thereafter that he picked up his mike, dusted off his records and rekindled his passion for calling. He is currently the club caller for the Delta Hub Wheelers (Delta, CO); the Black Canyon Twirlers (Montrose, CO); and his own Plus Club, the High Desert Diamonds, which he recently started and which dances the 1st & 3rd Fridays of each month in Grand Junction, CO.

Ron is one of only a few Modern Western callers who bridges the gap between CALLERLAB sanctioned programs and his own unique Community Dance Programs. Always presented with first-timers encouraged to participate, program variety is accomplished by varying the dance formations. With a presentation that includes a blend of traditional square dances, modern western square dances, Appalachan Big Circle dances, New England contras, circle mixers, couple dances, and an occasional English Country dance, Ron makes it fun and easy for everyone.

I started calling in 1998. I have fun at my dances mixing the old with the new. Most of the comments I receive are, "you play different music then most." I have called is some unusual locations, the top of Mt. Evans in Colorado at over 14,000 feet, 200 feet below ground at Wind Cave in South Dakota, the Royal Gorge Bridge in Colorado, on stage at Mt. Rushmore along with various other locations. I love to try different things with my groups. We have done Hashtag dancing, Dutch crossing, and others. I am the club caller for Ridge Runners in Conifer, Colorado, and also travel where ever I am hired to do a dance. My wife and I enjoy traveling in our RV to visit, see, and enjoy other areas. I truly believe Square Dancing is Friendship Set to Music.

Regularly cue for Swing Thru's, Springs Single Dancers (Colo. Springs), Hilltoppers (Member), Polka Dots, Scuffed Shoes, Square Halos. I consider myself a Ph. II cuer, and I can and do cue a few Ph.

It was my pleasure about three years ago to cue for a big two-club combined dance; it was my biggest crowd ever, and it went well. Also got to cue for an out-of-town (not really too terribly far away) club's New Year's Eve Dance. It too went very well.

I called regularly from 1967 to 2007. My teachers were Al Brundage and Earl Johnston as well as Jim Mayo, Ron Schneider, Jack Lasry, Deuce Williams, Audry Jones and Jay King. I also loved to dance New England Contra Dancing and Traditional squares to Duke Miller and Bob McQuillen who were influenced by Ralph Page. During the years I called, Western Style diminished rather than grew in New England. Ron Baldwin in CT has created a new club in the past 3 years. Earl Johnston once said Western dancers dance with their hands and traditional dancers dance with their feet. I believe we should take the best of both worlds and have them dance with their feet and hands and recreate the positive atmosphere that Ron Baldwin has done with his club. Choreography has evolved over the years and we should be able to theme our choreography around concepts that create smooth flowing material that creates a dance feeling of fun, fellowship and success. I have some ideas on how to achieve this by grouping calls into families and knowing how they evolved.

Our specialties are Barn Dances, Family Dances, Dance Parties for the occasional dancers or the non-dancers, community dances, Contra Dances Beginner's Balls, and exciting fast paced Mainstream club dancing. We will teach your group all that is necessary to have an exciting evening of good old fashioned fun! As disciples of Hall of Fame caller Dick Leger, we prompt all our squares. This unique style of calling always gives the dancer the first beat. Exciting duets have always been the center of our program. We also offer some easy prompted line dances and other dance forms that provide for plenty of variety! We are licensed by ASCAP and BMI and we are members of the Connecticut callers association and CallerLab. We are best known as "We Duet Right" because all our programs feature wonderful live harmonies. Most of our calling has been in southern New England, but we have called throughout New England and as far away as Florida, Nevada, Nebraska, and Oklahoma.

I am a Square Dance Party and Fun Nighter Caller - The DJ alternative. I specialize in beginner and square dance parties for non-dancers including adults, families, scouts, youth, father-daughter dances and handicable groups. Need a fund raiser? I'm also available for dance party or fun nighter dances for your organization. Need a Guest Caller? I can guest call for your square dance club through "lite" Plus. That means I'm willing to call Basic Dances as well if you don't want a regular MS dance. I can also call what I say is "Lite" Plus: That's a light mixture of Plus mixed with MS if your club wants some of the Popular and Easy Plus Calls, but not all of the Plus program. I'm a former member of the local Washington, D.C. metro area callers group NCASDLA. I now live in Acworth, GA (35 miles NW of Atlanta). I'm rejoining Callerlab in early 2021. I'm available now to call for clubs in the Atlanta - including Bartow, Cherokee, and Cobb, GA areas. Remember, Square Dancing is Friendship set to Music.

I started cueing in 2004 in Ontario, Canada doing benefit dances and guest appearances at a few clubs around Ottawa before my job and I got transferred to California. While there, I cued weekly for "Star Eights", an advanced square dance club (A2), "Sunnyvale Squares", a plus square dance club, and fill in or guest cue at other nearby square and round dance clubs as needed. I cued at several local hoedowns and festival and have taught beginner classes. I moved to Georgia in 2019, where I'm cueing for Peel Offs, a plus square dance club in Savannah. I'm a member of Roundalab and the Northern California Round Dance Teachers Association (NCRDTA). Two of my choreographed round dances were selected for NCRDTA Round of the Month.
