 COMMITTEE TO PROMOTE SQUARE DANCING FOR THE BENEFIT OF ALL CLUBS IN THE UNITED STATES |
| |
Van
Symons founded the
Committee to Promote Square Dancing (CPSD), a 501(C)(3)
non-profit, in
1999 to increase community awareness of the social and health
benefits of square dancing.
WHY
As
society has changed over recent years and people are more inclined to
stay home and play on their computers, Square Dancing has been on the
decline, as have most other traditional fraternal organizations.
MISSION
The mission of CPSD
is to get the word out that Square Dancing
continues to be a wonderful activity that fulfills the needs of its
participants by offering light aerobic exercise, mental stimulation and
lots of friends and social activities.
To this end CPSD offers low-cost classes that are open to everyone in the community as well as caller scholarships and a new caller practice support group.
YOU CAN HELP
The CPSD welcomes any and all proposals from both clubs and callers to promote square dancing. Also the CPSD may be able to use its members' efforts and its non-profit status to lower costs. So please consider joining CPSD or forming a CPSD-like organization in your area.
