(There is also a youth dance weekend in VT in Sept). The Whipperstompers Weekend is a dance weekend for young people, June 6th-8th 2008 at Table Rock State Park in South Carolina. A whole week-end festival of high quality dancing made as inexpensive as possible for students and young people in order to encourage them to attend. Not only an opportunity to dance a lot, but also to improve and broaden your dancing skills with awesome instructors and musical artists. We are fortunate that there is a broad and growing interest among young people in traditional dance. As with every other movement centered around young people, we have brought a new momentum and energy with us. The purpose of this weekend is to both provide an outlet for this energy and channel it into a new unity and positive change in the community as the torch is being passed to new leaders and movers and shakers across the nation. Please keep in mind that this weekend is open to everyone and we welcome people of all ages. The dance is merely designed primarily for and by young people as a way to help young dancers to mesh well with the dance community nation wide. This years weekend we will be dancing to music by Mock Turtle Soup and the Cornstalkers, with calling by Adina Gordon and Co. We have waltz, swing, and other couple dance classes in the works, details soon! Made possible in part by a Leadership Grant from the Country Dance and Song Society.<http://www.cdss.org/> We are the Old Mountains Group of Wild Twirly Folks We are a group of young people from all over, united by a love of dance, and the fact that we all live and dance in western North Carolina, from Asheville to Brasstown. ________________________________ This e-mail message (including any attachments) is for the sole use of the intended recipient(s) and may contain confidential and privileged information.
