Almost-Halloween Montpelier Contra Dance!

Past event
Oct 29, 2022, 8 to 11 PM

Join us for the dance, in costume if you want, this Saturday: 8:00-11:00 PM, at the Capital City Grange Hall, 6612 VT-12, Berlin VT 05602. Just one mile south of Montpelier.

We'll give out modest prizes for best costumes--categories will be created as necessary to honor the best crafted/most imaginative ones.

All dances will be taught and called by local favorite Don Stratton, with live music by Boston-based Kingfisher--Jeff Kaufman and Cecilia Vacanti. Jeff is on piano/mandolin/drums/synths, Cecilia is a great fiddler!

Instruction/Newcomers' session starts at 7:40, we always love to have new folks join us! If you haven't been to a contra dance, check out the videos of folks dancing in the Grange Hall at: http://capitalcitygrange.org/dancing/contradancing/. You'll also see our COVID protocols there: We require good masks: N95, KN95/94 or medical/surgical masks. We will give you one if needed! And we are not requiring proof of vaccination, FYI.

Admission prices: $12 for adults, $5 for kids & low-income folks, or be a "dance supporter" and give us $20, to help us pay the great callers, musicians and sound techs for the great work they do. We appreciate everyone who comes, whatever you pay!
