Nationals, 2021 Jackson MS

Ultimate fun in 2021

Welcome to Jackson!

Home of the 70 National square dance Convention®
th

Our Soul Team board was so looking forward to going to Spokane for dancing fun and getting more registrations for our
convention. Also getting to sell all the Ways and Means we have because we must raise money to put on our convention. Dan
and I were looking forward to traveling this last year like we have for the last three years across the USA promoting the 70
th
NSDC. As all of you are stressed by all the Covid-19 issues so is our board. We want to get people registered and have a big
“Reunion” dance next year in Jackson.

We sure hope we get to see all of you in Jackson because our board has been working hard to plan you a fun convention. They
can hardly believe there is only ten months till our Convention. There are ten great tours planned to take you all over the state.
The Everything Elvis tour is a four-day tour before the Convention starts to take you into the life of Elvis that was born in
Mississippi. You want to get registered for the Wednesday night special event that has an Elvis Tribute artist that has won
Elvis contests. You will thoroughly enjoy his performance along with the great meal that will be right after the opening
ceremony that occurs at 5:00. After the convention you can make plans for Dancing Fun in the Sun on the “Glory” ship going
to Eastern Caribbean with Justin Russell and Mike Hogan.

Our Education Chairman, Barbara Read, has developed a program that you will enjoy. The theme for the Education Program
in Jackson will be Educate with Soul. She will help those that started the Leadership Certification Program (LCP) in Atlanta
to get it finalized in Jackson. The Sew & Save program will provide Make & Takes with Beads & Buttons being the theme.
Beaded zipper pulls, Beaded T-shirts, Beaded Pictures, and Jewelry. Look for more plans for Education programs in upcoming
E-Magazine editions.
