Kendall (Neil and Dierdre) - Bright pink and invite.  Wide open gesture.  "Open to invitation",
  for 1 MONTH.  Might be helpfule for newbies.
  John - not everyone knows what bracelets are for.
  Tree - "Ask me"
  Kiara - likes the direct "share dance with me today"
  John - in conjunction with solo or replacing - doesn't like policy-on-the-wrist
  Jason - w/John, but also good for newbies
  Mellen - still uncomfortable dancing with many!
  Kiara - what would it impede trying it?
  Oracle - try it for a month, why not?
  Tree - diversity suggests the bracelet

*** TABLED - for more participants.  Surprisingly juicy.

Open vs 18+ or what?  In any case gotta be with parent.
