Saturday: Contra Dance at the Grange Hall!

Past event
Jan 21, 2023, 7:30 to 11 PM

This Saturday, Jan. 21, it's time for the next "Montpelier Contra Dance". Join us at the Capital City Grange Hall, 6612 VT-12, Berlin VT 05602, just one mile south of Montpelier, from 8-11 PM, with an instruction/refresher session starting about 7:40.

For our second dance of 2023, we have Nils Fredland calling, with music by 4 excellent musicians who've played together in various dance bands, including our series. They're looking forward to playing here again: Rose Jackson, Oliver Scanlon, Sam Zakon-Anderson and Max Newman! They play fiddle, fiddle/mandolin, keyboard and guitar, respectively, and they'll provide great dance music.

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--we require good masks: N95, KN95/KF94 or medical/surgical masks. Please bring your own, we'll have a few extras if needed. If you feel sick, please stay away and join us at our next dance.

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 wonderful callers, musicians and sound techs for the great work they do. We appreciate everyone who comes, whatever you pay!
