- Paul Rosenberg, Homespun Occasions; caller, Peter, Paul and George

"Your family was the hit of our last fundraiser."
- Fred Nagel, Dutchess Greens

"Dancers love Jeff Walker's relaxed and competent presence as a caller. He's
got a great selection of dances old and new - all fun - and the patient and
unflappable ability to make the dance delightful for all."
- Joe Baker, Mountain Laurel, caller/guitar
