On a dare, Tim started calling in November of 1975. The club he was dancing with conducted an amateur night, and members persuaded him into a slot. After that evening he was hooked; records couldn't be made quick enough for him to learn. He started conducting "One-Nighters" for local organizations, and soon thereafter obtained his first club, another step into the world of square dance calling.
Not having a license, his parents drove him to many of his first engagements. If not for them, Tim might not be calling at all. He continued calling through his schooling years and obtained a BA in Communications with an emphasis in Speech from Old Dominion University. He started recording for Square Tunes Records with hits like "Dance With Me One More Time". Afterwards, Tim started working with First Virginia Bank as a paying and receiving clerk and became a Branch Manager in September of 1986.
Shortly after, Tim was added to the staff of Rhythm Records enabling him to record many hits. In October of 1987 he decided to devote all his energies again toward square dance calling on a full time basis, touring extensively across the United States and into Australia, Belgium, Canada, Denmark, Germany, Japan, Mexico, Norway, and Sweden. He is on the staff of various resorts and Top of the Line Cruises and currently records for Royal Records. Even with his busy travel schedule Tim still maintains a home program at Sun City Resort in Hilton Head, SC teaching new dancers every twelve weeks.
There's more to it than just calling dances; a lot of professional training and education is needed to maintain his calling abilities, which range from Basics through Challenge-1. Tim is active with the local callers and an accredited member of CALLERLAB, the International Association of Square Dance Callers. He has served on the Board of Governors for the organization and was chairman of the CALLERLAB FOUNDATION for the preservation and promotion of square dancing. Currently he is on the Board Of Governors of CALLERLAB and is serving on its' Executive Committee. He is also an Accredited Caller Coach. These affiliations, along with traveling full time, provide Tim with a broader perspective of trends and developments overall in the activity.
Tim Marriner is not just a caller, he is an entertainer. Having performed in several jazz choirs in college, he has trained and developed many twists to his singing routines. His enthusiasm is overflowing! In short, if he's near your area - don't miss him.
