Welcome to my web site!

I started calling about 4 years ago after deciding to enter an amateur night calling  contest. I was scared to death before I got up but once I was up there found out it was sort of fun. I decided to try to really learn how to call so went to Silver State Callers College in Reno in 2006. Nasar Shukar, Doug Davis and Wade Driver were the instructors and I learned how much I didn't know! The next year I went to Circle 8 Ranch in Washington where I learned more about what I didn't know form Daryl Clendenin and Jerry Junck. Both classes were a lot of fun and some of it is sinking in finally, thanks guys.

 
I would also like to thank my partner Al Felde who has been very supportive of my calling ambition and has the official title of " Caller Hauler", also Jim Voll and Bruce Lowther who unfailingly let me call at there dances and have had and a big hand in guiding me along  and giving me constructive feed back.
 
I call every 4th Saturday for the Willamette Squares. I called for Toledo 49'ers for 3 years until they changed to a traveling club, and have called dances for Beachcombers, Coast Swingers, Country Capers, Silver City Squares, just to name a few.
 
You will also see a link on this site for Shawn Hawkins and the Offenders, that is my son and I am very proud of his work, he is lead singer and songwriter, so take a look please. 
 
Proud  to be Square
