Contra Dance at Grange Hall Again! June 29

Past event
Jun 29, 2024, 8 to 11 PM

We hope you'll join the many dancers who will be contra dancing to Anna and the Alphabet, with dances called by legendary caller George Marshall on Saturday evening. George is known for his relaxed and clear teaching of dances; he's been calling for decades! The band features Anna Patton on clarinet, multi-instrumentalist Michael Freeman and Sarah Hadley-Yakir on fiddle.

Come by 7:30, if you'd like to take part in the intro/refresher lesson. George will teach some of the basics of contra dancing starting about 7:40, and then we'll have contras from 8:00 to 11:00 PM, with a brief break midway through. It's easy to learn, and fun!

Admission: choose the price that matches you--$12 for regular adult-type people, $5 for kids or low-income people, or $20 if you want to help us pay the band, caller and sound really well! Part of the mission of the volunteer organizers is to pay the folks on the stage well for their talents and hard work.
