REMEMBER:
SUPPORT THE DANCES YOU LIKE - VOTE, VOTE, VOTE!! THIS HELPS TO KEEP THEM IN SIGHT AND ON THE DANCE FLOOR! 3 OPTIONS:
OPTION 1 (PROBABLY THE MOST IMPORTANT):
Remember to support the dances that you like by sending your votes in to Carol Craven's survey at World Line Dance Newsletter EVERY WEEK:
VOTE IN THE WEEKLY SURVEY
List up to 8 of your current favorites and e-mail them to Carol Craven at [email protected] by 6pm on Sunday.
Please use this format:
Dance name/Chor/Level (Ex. Beg-int) if two levels mentioned.
THESE VOTES ARE NOT CUMULATIVE AND MUST BE SUBMITTED EVERY WEEK TO BE COUNTED!
OPTION 2:
COPPERKNOB!
You can find the main page here: CopperKnob - Linedance Stepsheets
Add the dance you are looking for into the search engine where it says "key words". The step sheet for the dance you are looking for should appear. You have to set up a free account to login and vote, but every time you bring up the stepsheet, the dance is awarded a "view" which is also good.
THESE VOTES CAN ONLY BE MADE ONCE PER DANCE, THOUGH "VIEWS" ARE UNLIMITED.
OPTION 3:
LINEDANCERWEB! (Also very important - this is where the Crystal Boot nominations come from)
Go to Our Charts, Linedancer (linedancerweb.com)
Create a free account. Type in the name of the dance you are looking for where it says "quick search", choose the correct dance from the list below and vote accordingly. Each vote is good for one month and then you can repeat the process.
THESE VOTES ARE GOOD FOR ONE MONTH AND MUST BE RESUBMITTED EACH MONTH TO MAINTAIN PLACEMENT IN THE LIST.
