Save the Weekend: September 17 - 19, 2010
Calling All Dancers! There are several great dancing opportunities at the 2010 Games, in the tradition of Games Founder Evelyn M.E. Murray, F.Scot. There will be Scottish Country Dance workshops taught by certificated teachers of the Boston Branch, Royal Scottish Country Dance Society, and high-profile performances of the Demonstration Team, and of course our new Ball, the Loon Mountain Assembly - all with live music:

The Scottish Country Dancers have a home for Saturday and Sunday, in the Competition Building. This is the nice cozy building just to the right of the Governor Adams Lodge. Several of our events are held there, and between events is a nice place and time for dancers and musicians to hang out, jam, visit, perhaps leave our stuff while we go get lunch or visit other events. It's not far from the Fiddle Competition site (competitions all day Saturday), so it'll be easy for dancers and fiddlers to keep in touch. This is an indoor site, a comfortable place to dance and hang out.
Marianne Taylor and her Loonie Committee set up the Scottish Country Dance events for the Games several years ago, and the work is continued by the Loonie Committee after Marianne's untimely death in 2008.
