  The November, 2022 issue of The Modern Square, the monthly publication
of the Arkansas State Square Dance Federation (ASSDF) will be released
late Sunday evening, Oct. 16, 2022. This is because since the printer,
Arkansas Printing, wouldn't get to start on it until Monday, Oct. 17;
I decided to extend the deadline 48 hours...to 9pm Central Time, Oct. 16.

  I will note that with needing, finding, and using filler material, the
print edition will be 16 pages...even with not many club reports. As I've
noted, I feel that the 4 reasons reports aren't submitted, are as follows:

1) The club isn't dancing (in which case, I don't expect a report).

2) The club doesn't feel there's any "news" to report.

3) The club reporter forgot to prepare or send in a report.

4) The club doesn't have a reporter.

  I can't force folks to send in reports, so if your club hasn't been
submitting a report, and you're not happy about that...you need to talk
to the caller, cuer, officers, and members of that club...or you can be
the person to be club reporter. While I can grab photos from the various
Facebook pages for the e-Edition, I'm not going to write the club reports
for a particular club. The only report I'm responsible for is for my home
club, the Maverick Mixers.

  The e-Edition, on the other hand, will be rather large. I have around
100 e-Edition photos, from several dances from mid-September through
mid-October, including the ASSDF Fall Festival in Clinton...over 40
photos are from that event alone!! The e-Edition will likely be over
100 pages (in PDF format), and around 25 megabytes in size!! While I
will attach it to the email once I release it, it will also be available
for download on the ASSDF website, located at:

  As a side note, on the Facebook pages of Arkansas' Fall Festival, the
Pioneers, Maverick Mixers, Heber Springers, and Square Dancing With Jay
King, you can find the photos that I had to edit out (I had so many to
choose from)...but there are also video links, especially with Arkansas'
Fall Festival.
