A True Square Dance in Maria Stein, Ohio
Did you know that Maria Stein, Ohio is the capitol of Square Dancing? I didn’t. I also didn’t know that Square Dancing is much, much, much different than Line Dancing. I’ve photographed weddings in the Midwest for 15 years, so I’ve seen my fair share of Line Dancing…along with a few passionate renditions of “I’ve Got Friends in Low Places” but I had yet to experience true Square Dancing. There DJ told me that the call out recordings that he learned from were one of only a few in existence. Now, I’ve known a DJ or two that like to spin a yarn so take that with all the salt you need, but I thought it was a great experience and really fun to watch!
