Robert Kennedy; born
1952; started square dancing around the age of 10 years old. He
danced for approx. 15 years
before leaving the activity for 20 years. In 1996 he began
dancing again and met his wife, Judy, at the Swinging Stars
Square Dance Club on Halloween Night. They were married a year
later in a Square Dance Wedding.
In 1997 Robert decided to try his luck at calling. Mike Summers took him under his wing, and for about a year Robert traveled every other weekend to Mt. Airy, NC to learn and practice calling. On May 15, 2000 Robert Kennedy, Chris Hepler and Donnie Chapman recorder their first two records "Lightning Does the Work" and "American Pie" under the Blue Square Records label. On September 25, 2000 "JR Records" was born in order to produce and distribute quality square dance music. I became the caller for the Tanglefoots in Greensboro, NC after the retirement of my good friend Curtis Morrow. The Tanglefoots have since folded. On July 27, 2004 I became the caller for the Salem Squares in Winston-Salem, NC after the retirement of Dick McPherson. The Salem Squares Dance a the Georgia Taylor Recreation Center on Tuesday night fromn 7:00 PM - 9:00 PM. On January 3, 2008 I became the caller for the Shallowford Squares in
Elon, NC after the retirement of George Jackson. The Shallowford
Squares Dance at the Shallowford Community Center on Thursday night
fromn 7:30 PM - 9:30 PM. I became a member of Callerlab and
the
President of the North Carolina Caller Association. |
