From Joe: Please bring your donations when you come to the dance. The silent auction will help keep the contra series going. Contra dancing in the Flathead will not be able to continue without the generous support of the dancers! Silent auction items can be pretty much anything. I’m baking multiple batches of cookies, others are donating crafts and services. Just whatever you would like to do! The Contra Dance is Saturday, Dec. 10, from 7:30 to 10:30 p.m., at Northridge Lutheran Church, 323 Northridge Ave. Support your local contra dance organization by shopping/donating at the Auction! Band: Sassafras Stomp. Caller: Bev Young. Adults $7, College/High School Students $5, Families $15
