Howdy Dancers, Here are the dances done at the Kalispell International Folkdancers gathering of March 22, along with the dancers (and in my case, spectators) who took part. Yep, I had a ladder slip out from beneath me last week and ended up with a torn Achilles tendon, so I will be on the spectators' bench for a few weeks while it mends. But I plan to use the opportunity to try to video a good number of the dances we are doing, to keep busy and supplement the many fine videos that Roger and Russ have put together over the years. Next Saturday, March 29, we will mark the TENTH ANNIVERSARY of the Kalispell Flathead Valley International Folkdancers! Imagine that! Ten years and going strong. I suspect there will be some treats, and maybe a spontaneous cheer or two for those who started the group and those who were at the first dance. Hopa! Plan to join in for the dance of a decade! Russ reports that the date for the 2008 Camp and Stamp international folkdance gathering here in Kalispell will be Saturday June 28. I believe this will be the FIFTH annual Camp and Stamp. Dancing Saturday afternoon, potluck dinner, dance party Saturday night, overnight camping at Russ' and Missy's place, Sunday breakfast and more dancing... Exact plans and schedule still to come, but it's a wonderful summer event. Put it on your calendar. Kudos to Russ and Missy for all their work in organizing this event and pulling it off every year.
