English Country Dancing on the Vermont Side of Lake Champlain
June 11 and 12, 2027 at Elley-Long Music Center in Colchester, Vermont (near Burlington)
The weekend features Joanna Reiner Wilkinson calling to music by Bare Necessities (Kate Barnes, Earl Gaddis, Mary Lea, Jacqueline Schwab).
IMPORTANT: The event runs Friday night (welcome dance), Saturday afternoon (with an early session –choice of Advanced Challenging Experience for Experienced Dancers OR Fun Dance for All — and a later session that’s a review for all for the evening gala), and Saturday evening (dress-up gala). You can register for the full weekend OR choose by individual session(s). Currently, there are no planned activities on Sunday. Home hospitality is available and we have arranged for special ATL rates/discounts for several hotels. The weekend will also feature our very popular Clothing Sale/Boutique.
IMPORTANT FOR CANADIANS: In 2027, we will continue with this policy — Canadians can either pay the same numeric amount as other attendees but in Canadian dollars at the door, OR pay in US dollars with a 25% discount to the amount shown in US cash or US funds check.
