Please note that we will be taking the first 3 weeks in August off, and will resume dancing on Tuesday August 25.

But we have a couple of events this week!  First, come join us at the World Dance Day event in Corvallis, held at first and Madison.  The Albany Folk Dancers are dancing from 12 noon to 12:30.  We are doing some followable dances, so come join us!  The organizers have asked us to not wear street shoes on the floor that the tap dancers kind enough to leave out for us.  Here is a link to the event Facebook page, which has the most up-to-date information and the schedule of other groups:
