Re: this weeks online contra dance events #VirtualEvent

 

Hello! I teach PE. Is there a caller who would be interested in being a guest to give instruction in PE class to K-6 graders in the Fall in Champaign? OR call for a special family night?

Thanks!

Last Sunday the Flatland Consort band and several members of the Central
Illinois English Country Dancers did some dances outside the Urbana Free

and it was great to be able to do some dancing again.

The video from our dancing last Sunday is on the Library Facebook page at
