25.01.2022 NNSWSDA Newsletter November 2020. Page 1



24.01.2022 COVID19 Restrictions being lifted from Monday.

17.01.2022 DARWIN 2021 NATIONAL CONVENTION URGENT UPDATE To everyone who has already registered and those who were going to. It is with heartfelt disappointment and sadn...ess that we have to inform you that we can no longer ‘Live our Dream’ in Darwin 2021. Due to Covid-19 it has become apparent that it isn’t in the best interest of anyone’s health to hold our 62nd National Convention next year. This decision has been a very difficult one and agreed on by the Darwin Committee and the Australian National Square Dance Conventions Board. There will of course be a full refund available to everyone who has already registered and paid. Updates regarding future National Conventions will be provided by the ANSDC Board once the Board has considered all factors and completed their careful deliberations. We would like to sincerely thank you all for the support shown for the Darwin National Convention and hope that we will all meet on the dance floor in the not too distant future. Very sincerely Marilyn van Sambeeck Convenor 62nd Australian National Square Dance Convention September 2020 See more

12.01.2022 Here are 8 reasons to enjoy square dancing. It is: So much fun that you will be smiling within minutes, laughing and wanting to keep on dancing. Great ph...ysical exercise, involving almost constant movement without begin overly tiring, as you step in time with the music forming moving patterns with the other dancers in your square. Good mental exercise: learning each step, reacting to what the caller says and participating in the endless shapes that result. The challenge is in not knowing what comes next; the next step is called out to you. Easy to learn, providing a great sense of accomplishment and teamwork. Danced to enjoyable music including Rhythm and Blues, Golden Oldies, Gospel, Rock, Country and Western, Holiday Songs, Current favorites and even Classical tunes. A stress reducer. If you make a mistake, half the fun is figuring out how to get where you need to go. We laugh as we learn. A fine way to meet people and make new friends. It is more social than other dances since you dance with three other changing couples in your square. An activity that can be done by anyone in reasonable shape. You do not have to be graceful or coordinated to square dance. You don’t have to worry about stepping on your partner’s toes, because you are usually going in different directions. No fancy footwork is required.



10.01.2022 Here is the full registration form for the Woolgoolga Gala Weekend. Don’t miss this exciting weekend with our all time favourite Brian Hotchkies. Remember, COVID19 safety protocols are in place.

09.01.2022 ANNOUNCEMENT ON FUTURE NATIONAL CONVENTIONS FROM THE AUSTRALIAN NATIONAL SQUARE DANCE CONVENTIONS (ANSDC) BOARD Inc. Due to the current Coronavirus pandemic, r...ecent cancellation of two National Conventions and the uncertainty of timeframes for recovery, the ANSDC Board has been working towards a plan for Nationals over the next few years. 2021 The Darwin National was cancelled due to future uncertainty, giving dancers time to adjust their plans. There will be no National in 2021. 2022 This National was originally scheduled to be held in Adelaide. Due to a small dancer base in SA and the fact that they would rely heavily on dancers travelling and crossing borders, the committee have requested that the ANSDC Board look into alternative locations for 2022 to allow a state with a larger population of dancers to host this convention. This would allow for maximum attendance at our first convention coming out of the pandemic. The ANSDC Board have understood and support the committee’s request and have a working team investigating possible locations on the east coast and perhaps a modified format for our 2022 convention. Constant changes in Covid information and health and safety of dancers is top of mind and will make planning a challenge but we are confident that a National Convention will be held in 2022. 2023 Adelaide will now host the National Convention in 2023. Updated details will be communicated as the ANSDC Board and Adelaide convention committee work through the changes Future conventions NT and QLD are still planning on hosting conventions in the years ahead and the ANSDC Board will advise in due course of the relevant details and dates. All of this is reliant on trends in infection reduction, National and State regulations/restrictions, effective suppression and vaccine development continuing in a positive direction. Should there be a change in any of these circumstances, the ANSDC Board reserves the right to revisit the scheduling decisions based on the health and safety of dancers. We certainly appreciate the disappointment in recent cancellations and uncertainty that clouds the future. The ANSDC Board were consulted and fully supported the decisions made by the Blue Mountains and Darwin committees in keeping our dancers safe. The ANSDC Board acknowledges the important role that National Conventions play in the future of Square Dancing as well as the importance of keeping all dancers informed of decisions and relevant information as it comes to hand. More information will be made available as soon as plans develop for our future conventions.

09.01.2022 Returning to Square Dancing an update from Ausdance Number limits in classes: Parents, carers and instructors / assistants do not count in the 20 limit. Howeve...r if you are holding a performance the 4,2 rule applies. Venues can now have 50% capacity. Switching Participants Ausdance NSW guidelines do not recommend switching participants, especially during a class. The medical advice / researchers we have been working with advise that mixing groups can lead to greater chance of cross contamination. Also, the additional cleaning required as a new group enters may be too difficult to maintain for a studio owner. Where possible, the Ausdance guidelines as written in collaboration with medical professionals advise that no drop-in classes be held rather that people book in for regular classes and that these classes don’t change week to week. COVID Safety Marshall This only applies to gyms, so as long as you and your staff are aware of the COVID restrictions and your COVID Safety plan, you are ok.



07.01.2022 For those unable to attend Barry’s service a live stream will be made available via Zoom, please email [email protected] and we will forward the link to you.
