2021 VISITATION SCHEDULE
Wrangler Visitations
The practice of one club “visiting” the dance of another club is a long time square dance tradition. In some parts of the country it’s called “traveling”; in others , “banner raiding”. Rules vary (a lot) but in a successful “raid” the visiting club brings enough of its members to the visited club’s dance to qualify for one or more of their “banners”.
Visitations add a touch of competitiveness and fun while encouraging greater attendance at other clubs' dances. Nice as our collection is, the point of raiding isn’t really to get banners—it’s to promote fellowship between the clubs. Also, when a club has new members , they can be assured of some familiar faces to square up with if they go along as part of a “visitation” group. But most of all, as one sage has put it,“a club that does not visit may not get many visitors.” If we want folks to come to our dances (and we do!), we have to go to theirs too.
We encourage our members to visit other clubs by going to their dances, and by helping out at their classes if needed.
