There are certain things I look at over time that gives me hope for the future of this dance on the business level. One of those things I look at is the calendar... How far in advance are organizers and promoters scheduling their major steppers events?  Note this isn't a real scientific approach, because the opinions are based on submissions and information on the perpetual calendar used on this site. I may be missing information for many reasons, I haven't seen a plugger, the info hasn't been submitted to SteppersUSA, some people may have plans, but haven't released that information yet... The reasons can go on and on, so I make my conclusions from what I've got... So far. They (The promoters) must be watching the calendar and are planning their events with more of
an eye toward when others are scheduling events nationwide. Perhaps it's the example set by the Chicago Steppers Convention (CSCSteps.Com), where initially VIP Productions, Dreamgirls, and the Majestic Gents all scheduled events conflicting with each other and finally put their collective events into one nicely rolled up package, showing steppers can cooperate when they put their minds to it. One thing that bugs me though, There are a few steppin' for Obama events around the country... Why not in Chicago? Election time is a wonderful opportunity to expose more people to stepping and can translate into more steppers, which translates to more dates on the calendar, and we all know how loudly the almighty buck speaks.

Support the History of Stepping Project

Please copy the message below and send it on to as many steppers as you can please!

This is an open message to ALL steppers. Please share it 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.

Thank You for your time!
