Description

This demonstration number is for eight couples forming a double square, one inside the other.

The High Country Squares club hails from the Denver area. The caller here is Todd Albright. Much of the group's repertoire comes from Calico & Boots; many of the High Country Dancers, including their director, Dale Fry, were Calico & Boots members. Calico & Boots formed in the Boulder, Colorado area, carrying on the dance traditions and styling that came from Lloyd Shaw and the Cheyenne Mountain Dancers.
