Australian National Square Dance Conventions Archives

Listed here are the Convention Archives of all Australian National Square Dance Conventions.
These records have been complied for every Convention by the Archives Officers of the “Australian National Conventions Board Inc”, and until recently were in hardcopy format.

Over the past few year’s they have been scanned and are now available in pdf format online.
There are many pages of interesting reading and photographs for you to view.
