July 6 Montpelier Contra Dance!

The first Saturday of July brings another chance to contra dance, at the Capital City Grange just 1 mile south of Montpelier! This weekend, join us for another great dance, with caller Ben Sachs-Hamilton, and live dance music by Thunderwing! This band features Cedar Stanistreet on fiddle, and Amy Englesberg on piano and accordion.

Come by 7:30, if you'd like to take part in the intro/refresher lesson. Ben 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.
