3rd Annual Family Barn Dance with Live Fiddle Music!

Come one, come all!  It’s the third annual old-fashioned Family Barn Dance with contra dancing and live fiddle music at the Congers Lake Memorial Park Auditorium located at 6 Gilchrest Road in Congers, NY on Friday, November 8, 2013 from 7 to 9 pm.

This fun family event always draws a crowd and guarantees to be a lively, foot-stompin’ time for all. Children are welcome, and no previous dance experience is necessary. Renowned dance caller, Eric Hollman, will lead the way as guests keep step to live, traditional fiddle tunes from Ireland, Appalachia, New England and beyond. This year’s musical lineup includes two very talented (and hip!) folk musicians— Neil Pearlman on piano and Naomi Morse on fiddle.  

The event is open to the public. Admission is $10 per person and tickets will be sold at the door. There will be a fun raffle for all ages and refreshments for sale including freshly popped popcorn, as well as cider, apples and donuts from Conklin Farms. The dance is being sponsored by Weld Realty of Nyack, and Fairway Market of Nanuet.  All event proceeds will benefit the Ruth Schaeffer Scholarship Fund at Blue Rock School in West Nyack, NY. 

Date & Time: Friday, November 8th from 7 – 9 pm.
Location: Congers Lake Memorial Park Auditorium, 6 Gilchrest Road, Congers, NY 10920
Admission: $10
