Village Dance!

location: Community Hall

It's worth it to go out for an evening of traditional fun, fiddling and folk dancing!
A great way to laugh and make merry with your friends and neighbors, these are "no experience  necessary" events,  a caller tells you what to do each step of the way - hilarity fully guaranteed or your money cheerfully refunded.

This "Villiage Dance" includes  Scottish, French and Greek dances and especially "Contra" dancing - a lot like square dancing, (but no squares) which has been enjoying a huge resurgence of popularity across Canada and the US with, you'll never guess, young and currently very hip people!

The music of the "Merry McKentys"  is cheerful, up-beat and very danceable.
Five homeschooled siblings and their Dad, this family band started their musical adventures in a dirt floored cabin on a snowy B.C. mountain side, without electricity, TV, phone or running water. Almost 2 decades later, they are still traveling and playing music together, at home on Cortes Island, or when sailing the Salish Sea on their wooden ketch.

7:00 pm Wednesday, September 29th  at the Community Hall.
Tickets $5 to $10 sliding scale
