pennsicdance: court schedule announced

[Nadine Latief]

How about scheduling the dance parties during the day instead of at night?
Like how the Carosos' are.
If they stay during the night, I think we should limit the number of dance
parties because we don't have enough of a population to support both the
barn and the dance tent. It also confuses people as to which place to go to
for dancing. I also notice that during the specialized parties nights, the
dancing tends to end much earlier. Like when the organizers are done,
leaving only a few die-harders pattering about the tent (and having to deal
with complaints about being noisy and people trying to sleep.)
