Square and Contra Dance at Pine Hill Community Center Sunday, June 21 from 1-4 pm!

Dancers at the Celebration of Hilt Kelly's Life, March 22, Halcott Grange

Casey Mullaney will again join John Jacobson and the Tremperskill Boys adding contra dances to the usual schedule of square dances at the Pine Hill Community Center's bi-monthly dance.  Catskills Folk Connection is delighted to coordinate with PHCC to create a full calendar of monthly dances, first one at PHCC and the other at a venue in Delaware or Greene County.

Come refresh your memory of learning to square dance - it's different than when you may have last encountered it as a child. Or come try out a contra dance - similar to square dancing but organized in two lines. No it's not "line dancing" but line dancers will enjoy it.

We hope you will decide to spend your Sunday afternoon listening to the Tremperskill Boys play Northeastern, New York and New England dance tunes, and trying both kinds of dances.  All dances will be taught, but there will be dances of both types for experienced dancers too.

See you at the Pine Hill Community Center, Sunday, June 21, 1-4 pm.  287 Main Street, Pine Hill, NY 12465.  845-254-5469 or e-mail from their website pinehillcommunitycenter.org.

Can't come?  The next dance is Sunday, July 19, 1-4 pm at the Historical Society of Middletown, 778 Cemetery Road, Margaretville, NY  12455.  For more information go to their website mtownhistory.org.
