What, you're not doing anything on May 1st at 5:30 A.M. except for sleeping? The NewTowne Morris Men and The Country Dance Society-Boston Centre would like to invite you to wake up the Earth at the 53rd annual May Day Celebration. Meet us and a few hundred of your closest eccentric friends 5:30 A.M. at the Weeks Footbridge, 953 Memorial Drive, Cambridge. Songs, May Pole, Country and Ritual Dancing will insure that the sun keeps shining for at least another year. Fun and fertility (fertility is optional)!
Presented by the Newtowne Morris Men
With thanks to the Country Dance Society, Boston Centre
