Dance, Dance, Dance...

Post by Alan »

In the interests of cross-training, you should really come to one of the fiddle society's hoedowns.
These dances are a lot of fun and they're very family friendly.
Details below in a note from Daniel Lapp.
Don't be shy, stick the date in your calendar (April 12th) and get yerself a ticket!
Guaranteed to see other Tripleshotters there!



Hello Victoria Fiddle Society Members & Friends,

Our dances are BACK ... :-)

This dance is our Victoria Fiddle Society COMMUNITY Dance featuring Daniel Lapp. Our dances are modelled after 'Old-Time PRAIRIE BARN dances' that have been the glue of our communities across the country during the last 100 years. When not in barns, dances were often held in one room school houses with the stove stoked and all the desks piled on top of each other to make room for a dance floor. There is no 'caller' and most dances are executed in a counter clockwise motion around the dance floor in couples. These are polkas, waltzes, schottisches and the like. Then there are numerous 'novelty' dances such as the Butterfly, the Mexican Hat Dance, the Heel and Toe, the 7 Step and even the Bird Dance gets played on occasion.

So polish your shoes or boots and come READY to DANCE! Let's all meet at the White Eagle Hall for some old-fashioned fun, it is simple and fun. Daniel will teach the dances to you right on the spot if this is your first time or if you need a refresher.

All ages are welcome. Refreshments are Available from Hoyne Brewing!

Tickets Available At: Long & McQuade, Larsen Music and Ivy's Bookshop.
