Come join us for a fabulous time! Doors open at 7:00 pm, dancing starts at 7:30.
The Washington Spring Ball is a joyful yearly event of English Country Dancing to glorious music. The atmosphere is relaxed and friendly.
The band for the ball this year will be Terpsichore (Elke Baker, Liz Donaldson, and Ralph Gordon)
Our local callers share the calling for the evening ball.
We have a practice session the day of the ball, where most of the dances will be taught. Attending the practice session is strongly encouraged but not required. In the evening at the ball, all dances will be briefed (talked-through) and then prompted for the first few rounds.
Attire: Whatever you like. Some dancers choose attire from the 18th or 19th century, some come in their favorite tie-dye. Wear what makes you feel happy and festive.
Afternoon practice session from 2:00 - 5:00 pm on the day of the ball, at the Civic Building , which is included in the admission fee.
