Here are the entries for the NEFFA 75th Contra Contest. Thanks again to all of
you who submitted dances.
The dances are presented as written, mostly unedited. They are grouped by
author in order of submission, with the exception of the winning dance, which
is at the top. I do have all of this
Good job Chris, especially considering what a poor job you did trying to
write the worst dance last year ;-)

The winner of the Neffa 75th Contra Choreography Contest is Diamonds Are For
Neffa, written by Chris Page. The judges feel that his dance has good flow, is
suitable for the NEFFA audience, and includes very NEFFA-appropriate inter-set
allemandes and a celebratory diamond. Even the title is
NEFFA 75th Contra Contest
To help NEFFA celebrate our Diamond Jubilee, we hereby open up the NEFFA 75th
Anniversary Contra Choreography Contest. The winning dance, as judged by Bob
Isaacs and Lisa Greenleaf, will be called by Mr. Isaacs at the Festival's
celebration dance on Saturday, April
I was there, and it was Manga Tak.

Can any of you help me identify a dance that we danced during the last
NEFFA session on Sunday? The dance in question was called with the
Festival Orchestra playing and it may have been called by Sue Rosen.
The key figures were 2 "past through to an ocean wave" figures. In one

No matter what time we pick SOMEone is going to be doing something vital,
I'll bet -
what if there was a shared-weight place?
If we picked a particular spot and used it to meet whoever else was there
at the moment, even if we couldn't make a particular time?

I'll be repeating my contra tune discussion/workshop

I'll also be joined by Jaige Trudel and Adam Broome from

Hi Shared We
Hi Shared Weight friends,
I will be coming from California to NEFFA, and it would be great to meet as
many of you as possible.
I am thinking to set up up a mtg time (maybe two?), that we can meet either
in the cafeteria/ int'l food bazaar, or perhaps after hours? Similar to what
you did
