Join us and the Sacramento Country Dance Society for an afternoon contra dance at The Palms!
Lighthearted and social, contra is danced in two lines of couples who dance various patterns or figures with one another. Contra dance music is in the form of lively reels or jigs in the Celtic and bluegrass traditions.
There will be a beginner’s orientation and lesson at 1:30pm, followed by the dance from 2-5pm. Erik Hoffman will be calling the dance and the band is Sactown Revelers (Kathrine Gardner, Cynthia Llano and Allen Barnes).
The bar will be open with all of the usual refreshments available for purchase.
