Click Here New Email Address for Pluggers:pluggers@steppersusa.com Ellicott City sho ain't no shanty town and the hotel... WOW! The
bathroom is bigger than my bedroom at home. The place seems to have all
of the amities. If you didn't book yourself on this trip, you're missing
out. With everything happening in the world right now, it's nice to get
away. I don't golf, but if I did, I'm sure I would be in heaven here...
And I'm here to work! I'm going to see about getting some establishing
video shots later today.
When I go "out of town", I really begin to realize what an important
role we, who use the internet to keep people appraised and up to date on
what's happening in the steppers community. I feel so disconnected from
Chicago that I feel an entire series of articles about people stepping
outside of the windy city. SteppersUSA was the original website
dedicated from it's inception to the national aspect of stepping, so
it's only right we ask you the stepper from outside of Chicago to share
your experiences as steppers who are connected to the dance without
being physically in Chicago. Most Chicago steppers just don't have a
clue of how hard it must be to maintain that connection. My aim will be
to attempt (with your help) to establish a tighter connection through
some communication.

with as many people as possible.
As many of you may already know I started a new web
site for the benefit of the greater steppers community. It's called
History of Stepping Project. I wish to encourage you to add your
knowledge to the timeline. If you know anything about stepping, please
share this with the public on this site. We are looking for all
information related to stepping from it's beginnings to the present. The
information literally includes everything from clubs and bars which held
steppers sets and parties to contests and the participants and results,
to when different steppers organizations and classes started, who the
instructors were and are; Musical bands, and artists, DJ's, radio and
television personalities, Movies, videos, and photos… literally
everything stepping.
Creating an accurate historic timeline will go a long
way toward helping the community take the next step in its logical
progression as it continues to grow nationwide and will become a
valuable resource for all in the future.
Your input, your knowledge and your effort have made the dance what it
is today. Don't you feel your place (and your organization's) in the
timeline is well deserved? I do!
Please send an email to your members or readers inviting them to
participate. Place a link on your web site also please. All support is
appreciated!
The effort requires more than just posting the
information. The need for fact checkers, people willing to do some
research exists in this important ongoing project. Just a few minutes a
week can make a difference.
