adinaLabor Day Weekend
August 31 - September 2, 2012

It's coming up again! Contra! English! It's an English/American dance weekend! It's got a new name because...well...because.  We love our new name - "Sarsaparilla" conjures up the frontier spirit of America, and we intend to kick up our heels and live up to that image.

Contra the way English dancers like it, with spit and polish and interesting music, and English the way Contra dancers like it - full of energy and joyous sponteneity. Here's how we plan to achieve it:
