Mark your calendars for May 31 at the Greenfield Guiding Star Grange. This will be a bal folk PARTY with no teaching. We'll have an intro session first to get the beginners ready and then it will be dance party time! All are welcome at the party, and even if you don't know all the dances, you'll be able to look around and follow what others around you are doing. It's going to be a blast!
