The logo selected for the 50th anniversary of the Los Angeles Branch depicts the entwined stems of the California Golden Poppy and the Thistle of Scotland framed by the name of our Branch at the top, with the dates 1966-2016 at the bottom and a large 50 in the center. Bars 9-24 of the dance outline the shape of our anniversary logo.

Table rows with a green background denote recordings starting with one of the recommended tunes and the usual number of repetitions for the dance (4). A yellow background means a recording with one of the recommended tunes but a non-standard number of repetitions. Recordings with a red background use a different tune and possibly a non-standard number of repetitions.

Recordings whose titles are in italics are not explicitly linked to this dance but have been identified by the database based on the type, bar count, and recommended tune(s) of the dance.
