Subject: Re: Kettle River 8x32 S

I'm going to take this opportunity to take my own advice and  publish
my first dance via the Internet.

A group of Twin Cities dancers tried this one out recently and really
enjoyed  it.   They  did  say it tended to make them dizzy (this only
seemed to increase their enjoyment, however).  If anyone  decides  to
try it, please let me know what you think.

KETTLE RIVER
8x32S3 Strathspey for 3 couples in a four couple set

Bars
1-4     1C turn RH and cast off one place, 2C stepping up on 3-4.
5-8     1C turn with both hands about 1 1/2, to end facing 1st
        corners (1C should turn almost until their backs are to 1st
        corners, then drop one hand and turn "inside out" to face
        1st corner).
9-16    Set to 1st corner and turn with both hands.  Set to 2nd
        corner and turn with both hands, opening up at the end
        of the turn for
17-20   Three hands round to the left with corners (i.e. 1L with
        2M and 3M, 1M with 2L and 3L).  1C pull right shoulders
        back and the end to face each other in the middle of the
        set.
21-24   1C turn with both hands, then set advancing to pass each
        other by the left shoulder, ending back to back facing
        own side of the dance.
25-28   1C dance three hands round to the left
        with partner's corners (i.e. 1L with 2L and 3L,
        1M with 2M and 3M), pulling right shoulders
        back at the end to face each other in the middle of the set
29-32   1C turn with both hands, then pull right shoulder back to
        curve into 2nd place on their own sides, ready to begin again.
