DANCEABLE FEAST 2008 PRESENTS

WILD ASPARAGUS

With GEORGE MARSHALL calling

and

the TOO LOOSE CAJUN/ZYDECO BAND

You are invited to attend this exciting weekend contra dance camp, November 7-9, 2008, at Sky Camp near Eugene, OR. Camp will start Friday evening with registration and a contradance, followed by workshops and more dances the entire weekend. Wild Asparagus, from New England, is one of the country's pre-eminent contra dance bands, known for their colorful, dynamic, rhythmic dance music with many stylistic influences. George Marshall is known for his warm personality and clear teaching and calling. The 5 piece Too Loose Cajun Band has delighted Portland area dancers with their spirited offerings of Cajun, Zydeco, and Honky Tonk Blues. Marc Green and Mary Mcleod return by popular demand, and under their capable instruction, we'll all be stepping to those hot Cajun and Zydeco tunes. Annie Johnston will prepare fresh and delectable meals from Friday night snack to Sunday lunch.
