A2 - Partner Swing (16)
B1 - Ring Balance (4), 1 Place to the Right (4), Ladies Chain (8)
B2 - Ladies Chain Back (8), Right Hand Balance your Neighbor (4) pass through (4)

From Penelope: “I was teaching the lesson and sort of hashing out a dance on the fly and I said Chain the ladies up the set, and a couple of people called out (the ‘experienced lesson helpers’) ‘you can't chain up and down the set!’... the rest is history. One note, I'm planning on switching the A and B, so the progression is in the middle and the end is the Partner Swing...)”

REMARKS: This dance was held at Glen Echo's Bumper Car Pavilion (BCP). The BCP has a surprisingly decent 3,500 SF wood-on-joists floor which can handle over 300 contradancers.

This evening was the graduation for FSGW’s “Caller’s Practicum” workshop series. Congratulations and thanks to Penelope for participating!
