Even though we’re not dancing, CDR volunteer organizers continue work behind the scenes to prepare for the happy day when we can return to the dance floor.

The Nominating Committee has done an excellent job of finding four great candidates.  The period for nominations from the virtual floor has passed.  No other nominations beyond those provided by the nominating committee have been received.

    • For President: Cindy Culbert
    • For Vice-President: Fred Dean
    • For Secretary: Pat Donaldson
    • For Treasurer: Rich Dempsey

Now, we need membership approval to elect this year’s CDR officers. You should have received a ballot at your CDR registered email address.  If you have not received a ballot yet, please contact .  As part of the response to the Covid-19 pandemic, the Board has extended your 2019 membership through the end of August, 2021, so if you were a member last year, you’re still a member, and your vote is important.  We must have a quorum of at least 21 votes to approve the officers.

Thank you for your support of Contra and English Country dance in Rochester.
