The Princeton Country Dancers' (PCD's) regular Wednesday dances are 8-10:30 pm (beginner's workshop at 7:40 pm). Beginners are welcome: no experience necessary, and you need not come with a partner. Regular admission is $4 (students/seniors half price); this applies where the price is not otherwise marked.
Please carry in clean, soft-soled shoes to protect our beautiful wood floor; our use of the hall depends on it.
For additional information, please call Carol at 609-683-7956 or Steve at 609-924-8813 or e-mail pcd@dancegypsy.com.
Musicians are welcome to join the pick-up band (email Susie Lorand at srl@mail.princeton.edu for more info about the
band).

Sue Dupré with
music by Northeast Extension Contra chestnuts: a night of dance classics and old favorites. Step back to the days of yesteryear when contra dances like Moneymusk, Rory O'More, Hull's Victory, Chorus Jig, Lady of the Lake, Sackett's Harbor, Portland Fancy and Petronella, and old-time squares and couple dances filled dance programs and cozied up to the hearts of dancers. A few modern contra favorites have been invited to fill out the bill. Carol
Compton, piano; Susie Lorand, fiddle; Bob Stein, accordian |
