Information for the Calendar of Events should be given to:

PUBLICATIONS OFFICER |

WEB MASTER |
If you supply flyers of your special events to the Federation, they will be included with the mailing of the Calendar, and will be published in the "Dance Flyers" page of this web site. Distribution reaches all member square and round dance clubs in Nova Scotia, associated organizations, and individual subscribers. (Number Required and Publishing Schedule)
The Calendar serves two purposes:
(1) To keep your club members informed of upcoming events. Therefore, post the Calendar in a prominent place, and if possible disribute copies to your members.
(2) To help avoid conflicts between dances. Please try not to schedule your dance on a date already selected, especially if the scheduled dance is listed in bold type. Bold type listings are club Special Dances.
