Please join us on Saturday, Aug. 6th for another contra dance, with a live band and a great caller. We have a change of caller from our expected schedule, so we'll be hearing from Julian Blechner calling, with hot live music from Rose Jackson, Guillaume Sparrow-Pepin, Everest Witman and Cedar Stanistreet! As always, the dances will be at the Capital City Grange Hall, about 1 mile south of Montpelier at 6612 VT 12, Berlin VT 05602 for GPS directions.
Our dances start with an "intro" session for first time dancers, and anyone who wants a "refresher", starting about 7:40 PM, with the full dance starting at 8:00 PM, and continuing to 11:00. There will be a wide variety of folks to partner and dance with, all ages well-represented in our welcoming dance community! If you are new to contra dancing, you can see videos of past dances on the Grange website: http://capitalcitygrange.org/dancing/contradancing/.
Admission is $12 for adults, $5 for kids and low-income folks, and some "dance supporters" give us $20 to help us pay the callers, musicians and sound folks well. We appreciate everyone who comes!
COVID details: While we no longer require proof of vaccination, we do require everyone to wear well-fitting, good quality N95, KN94/KN95 or medical/surgical masks. We'll give you one if you need it! We also collect names and email addresses for contact information, just in case.
If you'd like to be on the email list for reminders about each dance, please send an email to: cdu.tim@gmail.com. You can also ask questions that way, or call Tim at: 802-225-8921.
