Celtic Myst with Open Calling!

Indianapolis contra dance “gypsies” are getting packed for Winter WarmUp in Columbus, Ohio.

A new band, Troika, plays Celtic, Folk, Gypsy and “Slavicana” and Ryan Smith calls. Last week we had a dozen new dancers, and everybody said they had fun and are coming back. Do join us for for fun!

Old time contra dance music by LEDfoot with Bob Duffy Calling.

Contra dance this week with The Ripples from Cincinnati and Janet Bertog from Kentucky.

Early notice: We are not planning on dancing this year on Christmas or New Year’s Day.  And we are looking for an alternative location for the first few weeks of January 2013, as the church will do maintenance that limits building access.

If local dancers have suggestions of a site, ideally with a sprung wood floor, nice enough restrooms, lighting, and temperature control; easy to find, good parking, near a bus stop, not too expensive. . . please let a board member know. We’re specifically looking for January, but welcome ideas of places we might dance in summer, for occasional weekend events, or for special outreach events.

The Indy Contra Board was happy to see many of you at Gypsy Moon Ball 2012, and would appreciate your feedback, whether you came or not. (We understand! Nobody can attend all the contra dances they would like to.)
