Saturday, Feb. 4, it will be cold outside, but there will be lots of great dancing to warm everyone up at 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 first dance in February, Vermont-grown & based caller Mary Wesley will be teaching and calling the dances, with music by the "Daybreak Trio" of Anna Patton (clarinet), Owen Morrison (guitar/mandolin/feet) and Naomi Morse (fiddle). These great musicians have all played at our Hall, and we look forward to great tunes to keep everyone up and dancing!

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!
