(Established in 2010)
WASCA is committed to the promotion and continuation of the activities of square dance including square dance and round dance. The WASCA Board of Directors recognizes the difficulty in beginning any career, in particular that of a square dance caller or round dance cuer. To try to assist those individuals that aspire to either of these careers, WASCA has established a Scholarship program for callers and cuers with less than 3 years experience (applicants less than 18 years old require parental consent). To participate, please send a cassette tape or CD of one “patter” call of approximately two minutes and one singing call. For the cuer, a cassette tape or CD with two types of rhythms (waltz, two-step, fox trot, etc.) is needed. The caller or cuer must become enrolled in an accredited caller or cuer school to receive the scholarship.
IMPORTANT:
DO NOT INCLUDE NAME OR LOCATION ON THE TAPE!!
