A WEEKEND OF HISTORICAL DANCES AND OPEN STAGE

HISTORICAL DANCES will escort you through three centuries of folk dance traditions including Olde
English, Early American, dances of the Civil War era, and popular dances of the late 19th and early 20th Centuries.
OPEN STAGE sessions welcome YOU to play in (or be) the band and invite YOU to lead some dances
such as contras, squares, Appalachian sets, International, colonial longways sets, quadrilles, waltzes,
English, not to mention some novelty dances which are very great fun and miscellaneous surprises As You Like It.
THE MUSIC will be a combination of assigned musicians, open stage for volunteer musicians, and recorded
music for certain Open Stage sessions in the event that volunteers do not bountifully come forth to play music.

DANCE CALLERS: John Penn, Sylvia Coffey, Don Coffey, and any other callers who may chance to attend.
SINGERS WILL SING … MUSICIANS WILL JAM … DANCERS WILL FROLIC AND DANCE

new friends, sit and think. -Learn to call dances, play fiddle, guitar, mandolin, recorder or penny-whistle in
