March 06: Happy Herd of Dancers at COWntra Dance

Cowntra_3_4_06Cornwall First Selectman Gordon Ridgway tactfully did not mention the words "maximum occupancy" last Saturday when a barn-busting crowd packed the Town Hall for the latest COWntra dance.

The dancers, ranging in age from pre-toddler to great-grandparent, formed line after line to the gentle promptings of caller Paul Rosenberg, as the Homegrown Band gamely reeled off tunes from every corner of the Earth.

The good feeling was enhanced by a groaning board of cakes and cookies, which only momentarily distracted the younger dancers from the toe-tapping proceedings.

The next COWntra Dance will be April 8, from 7 - 10 at the Town Hall. Anyone interested in being added to the COWntra dance mailing list, or participating in any aspect of the proceedings, contact Debra Tyler by email or call 860 672 0229.

Meanwhile, many thanks to all who contributed time and talent to this wonderful evening!
