A lot of recruitment works best with the personal touch. I have just been recruited by a morris side at a festival on the strength of my dancing at a ceilidh, by the woman I was dancing with and members of her side watching. Seems a good method to me. I might even try it myself in future.

I wouldn't worry at all about the 'image' of morris: people will either like us or they won't, no matter what we do. We just need to do what we do well.
