Bill Olsen called a dance at dawn dance a while ago with a mini-grand square on
the diagonal. That was cool. I think he wrote it.
And Kathy A called something at flurry last year with a right and left through
and then the ladies slide right and across the set to take hands in a short
wavy line
The original 4-face-4 with a Grand Square (and the original 4-face-4 in
which the couples changed sides during the course of the dance) was my
Grand Square Contra:
Forward and Back, all swing corner
Sides face, Grand Square
Reverse
Side couples pass thru, Head couples pass thru, all swing partner
Thanks all for the great suggestions. Lots of new, good stuff in my box now
for the workshop and beyond!

Thanks, Mac,
Rather than making a copy of Gold Star Wednesday on the list, I'll point to
the website where you can find it including my teaching notes:

I believe Clark Baker and Lisa Greenleaf have worked up several Contra/MWSD
hybrids but the only one I could find on Clark's site was Relay The Orbit:
