TRADITIONAL DANCE and MUSIC, WITH FRIENDS

2010 Memorial Day Weekend: from Noon, Saturday May 29 through Noon, Monday May 31 at Lake Cumberland 4H Center

ONE OF THE NATION'S FINEST FOLK DANCING FACILITIES

On yon forested hills above Lake Cumberland, down past Faubush, way at the End Of The Road

A WEEKEND OF HISTORICAL DANCES AND OPEN STAGE

HISTORICAL DANCES will escort you through three centuries of folk dance traditions including Olde English, Early American, dances of the
Civil War era, and popular dances of the late 19th and early 20th Centuries. OPEN STAGE sessions welcome YOU to play in (or be) the band and invite YOU to lead some dances such as contras, squares, Appalachian sets,
International, colonial longways sets, quadrilles, waltzes, English, not to mention some novelty dances which are very great fun and miscellaneous surprises As You Like It. THE MUSIC will be a combination of assigned musicians, open stage for volunteer musicians, and recorded music for certain Open Stage sessions in the event that volunteers do not bountifully come forth to play.
Featured musicians for the weekend: LEWIS & DONNA LAMB Recipients of the 2007 Governor's Folk Heritage Award, Kentucky’s highest honor in the folk arts
