The Caller Training Committee just completed a major revision of the Starter Kit for New Callers (previously called the Starter Kit for Newer Callers).  

The Caller Training Committee created this kit to provide prospective callers and new callers with an introduction to the knowledge and skills they will need to study and acquire if they decide to learn to call modern western square dances.

The best news?  It is available as a free download on the CALLERLAB Website: https://callerlab.org/callerresources/
