Free Open Band & Caller Dance at Green Lake!

Let's celebrate summer with an outdoor dance! These dances pretty much run themselves, though some of us have been prime instigators in past years. Open to all - come dance, play, take a turn calling..
We choose the place on the lawn after arrival - usually one of the two tringle shaped bits of lawn between the brick restroom building and the lake - on the north side of Green Lake, just east of the wading pool.
Come earlier (6:15ish) if you want to picnic/socialize and possibly jam or warm up. Bring your own picnic or something to share.
Dancing will start by 7. Open sign-up for callers, with a small battery operated system provided. Caitlin Bannan will manage the order of the dances.
Musicians: Tune selection will be by consensus, though leadership roles may surface by the more experienced. If there are contra dance tunes you want to be played that others will know, bring your suggestions. Two tune sets work best.
Bring your own chair if you want one!
Everyone is welcome to come dance, play in the band, or take a turn calling a dance! (or just listen, or do everything!)
Rain will cancel or postpone the dance - check this event or Open Band FB page for the latest information:

The dancing usually goes until dark, depending on the energy of the dancers and musicians. We are estimating an end around 9pm.
