"Friendship Set to Music" is a series of hour-long, square-and-round-dance television shows created by a dedicated group of square dancers in Minnesota to show everyone the fun
that can be had in modern western square dancing and round dancing. The Square Dance Council of New Jersey is one of the groups which is sponsoring the show in New Jersey.
Producers of the show, Dee and Ken Scott, are joined by groups of avid square dancers from all over Minnesota, North Dakota, South Dakota, and Iowa to put on a lively show full of hand clapping, foot stomping, smiles, and information. The regular caller is Dick Rueter of Minneapolis and the regular cuer is Ray Belanger. The shows hosts, Ardus and Bob, intersperse the dancing with informative interviews about square and round dance traditions. Each show is different. Some shows have themes, some shows highlight a specific club, some shows have live music and often there are multiple callers and cuers.
