Upcoming and Past Events

Contra Dance Saturday October 1st, 2016

Laura Me Smith calling to Countercurrent

Join us at Black Diamond Community Hall at 7:30 to learn the ropes then at 8 pm the music takes off. Bring your all your friends young and old for a real fun time.
Countercurrent is a contra band from Western Washington made up of two band members: Alex Sturbaum and Brian Lindsey who’ve both been immersed in music most their lives. Their energetic music will have your feet flying in moments.

Laura Me

Laura Mé has not been calling since time began, only since 1980.  Her succinct teaching and quick wit delight dancers near and far, young and old, brand new and experienced.  Equally comfortable with contra dances, English Country dances, and squares, she’ll keep your toes tapping and your mouth grinning long after the band goes home.


There is a workshop at 7:30pm.  The dances begin at 8:00.  All other dance details are on the “About Our Dance” page on this website. 

Contra Dance, Saturday September 3rd, 2016

Lindsey Dono
with
Kate Powers and Friends.

September 3rd 2016, our contra season is rebooting! Join us at the Black Diamond Community Hall at 7:30 for lessons, then the fancy foot flying will start at 8PM. Bring your friends, snacks and smiles for a real good time. 
A Massachusetts transplant, Lindsey Dono began dancing in high school and calling in college. With her calm teaching, careful programming, and sunny demeanor, she can coax even the most skittish beginner onto the dance floor. Lindsey also leads workshops for intermediate and advanced dancers that focus on safety, creativity, and community.

When not involved with contra, Lindsey conducts immunology research, practices lindy hop, and crews on a racing yacht.






Kate Powers is a violinist and fiddler who enjoys performing and arranging an immense variety of music genres as well as composing her own music.


She is very popular locally, it has been so fun to watch her grow and blossom in the world of music. 




There is a workshop at 7:30pm.  The dances begin at 8:00.  All other dance details are on the “About Our Dance” page on this website.
