     Hi Ricky,
     My college-age son tells me that for college age kids there's
     nothing
     more fun than a gypsy. Under his tutelage I've done two dances for
     college crowds lately using lots of gypsies to a very enthusiastic
     response. My husband, who attended one of them, thought it was
     tooooo many gypsies, but my son said it was perfect... different
     strokes.
     I used Gypsy Around Two, already mentioned. I also modified Broken
     Sixpence, swapping out the ladies do-si-do for a ladies gypsy and
     the
     gents do-si-do for a gents gypsy. In addition, they had a lot of fun
     playing with the ladies gypsies in Heartbeat Contra by Don Flaherty
     and Casbah Queens by David McMullen. I assume you have those but
     just in case:
     Heartbeat Contra by Don Flaherty
     A1 Balance circle, spin one place to the right (2x)
     A2 Neighbors balance and swing
     B1 Ladies gypsy once and a half, partners swing
     B2 Circle left 3/4, Balance the ring, partners California twirl
     Casbah Queens by David McMullen
     A1 Neighbors do-si-do and swing
     A2 Gents allemande left 1 1/2, partners allemande right 1 1/2
     B1 Ladies left shoulder gypsy, partners swing
     B2 Promenade across set, Circle left 3/4, Pass through up and down
     Have fun!
