Summer Soiree Festival - Contra Dance Weekend


This summer's holiday will find me at home in Asheville dancing at Summer Soiree. The weekend contra dance festival , held on the beautiful campus of Warren Wilson College just outside Asheville, North Carolina, will celebrate it's 20 anniversary June 19-21, 2009.

Great Bear Trio, one of the most popular contra dance bands in the US, headlines the talent. Asheville's own Beth Molaro is calling. Dance workshops will include swing dancing, waltzing, flat footing and contra flourishes. There will be a special square dance session for aficionados and Barbara Groh will lead a caller's workshop.
