Square Dance Masters Class with Hilt Kelly, 2 p.m. Saturday, June 9, at Bovina Community Hall

'

Hilt Kelly and the Sidekicks will conduct a Masters' Class at the Bovina Community Hall, 1866 Co. Hwy 6, Bovina, NY  13740 on Saturday, June 9 at 2 p.m.  Experienced dancers are needed to help Hilt and his band train the next generation of square dance callers.  Beginners are welcome to observe.  $5.00 admission.

For health reasons, Hilt Kelly can no longer call square dances himself, so he is passing on the tradition to eager proteges.  This is the last in the series of masters classes in fiddling and square dance calling until next fall when we hope to present more Catskills traditional music and dancing. For more inforation call Ginny at 607-326-7049.

P.S. The Slow Jam, spawned by the winter masters' classes in fiddling, continues to meet at 6 p.m. on the second Friday of the month.  It now has a permanent location at the Pine Hill Community Center in Pine Hill, NY.  Call Jeanne Palmer for more information  607-326-3132.
