July 4th Weekend 2019 – June 27 to July 1
Snow, ice, and wind getting you down? Luckily, we have July 4th Session at Pinewoods to look forward to! This classic Boston Centre Weekend at Pinewoods is one of the most popular events of the year. We arrive at camp on Thursday night and dance through the weekend with daytime classes and evening dances and parties.
We are very excited about our staff this year. The English Dance program features the wonderful and talented Joanna Reiner Wilkinson and Brooke Friendly. The fantastic Quena Crain will join us this year to lead American Dancing. For our English Ritual Dance program, we are excited to announce the return of Laurel Swift from Bristol, England to teach Morris, Clog, and to lead Ceilidh dancing. Laurel brings extensive expertise in English dance and music as well as unparalleled energy and joy in teaching. We are also excited to announce that Judy Erickson will be returning to teach Longsword. Lily Leahy will be coming all the way from Ireland to lead Harmony Singing, and we are so excited to have her back. Jamie Beaton and John Mayberry will lead Porch Singing. And last, but most certainly not least, the fabulous Miss Laura Sprung is bringing her fantastic crafting skills to share.
Our musical staff is brilliant as always featuring Karen Axelrod, Alex Cumming, Doug Creighton, and Eric Martin as well as the fantastic contra-dance band Cloud 10, featuring Arthur Davis, Donal Sheets, and Cedar Stanistreet.
By popular demand, we will be holding a Ceilidh again this year lead by Laurel and Alex! There will of course be the usual gatherings of after-parties, tea-parties, cocktail parties and general merriment. We can’t wait to relax, dance and enjoy life at Pinewoods with you all! Please join us!
