Hello!

My name is Nils Fredland. I am a proud staff member at the Country Dance and Song Society (CDSS). CDSS believes that participatory arts change lives, and the CDSS mission is to spread joy and build community through dance, music, and song; my personal vision and mission is the same.

I'm excited to tell you about our Centennial Tour — a major project CDSS is planning for our Centennial in 2015, when we will celebrate 100 years of dance, music, and song, and the CDSS role in it. A major goal of all Centennial projects is to share and affirm the CDSS commitment that we will be around to support and serve you - dancers, singers, musicians, dance callers, song leaders, and organizers — for another 100 years.

We're excited to have this opportunity to give back to communities who make participatory dance, music, and song happen. Thank you for your work. We look forward to visiting!


Sincerely,


Nils Fredland

CDSS Centennial Tour Manager
