Calendar

The Salem Folklore Community continues their First Thursdays Contra Dance series in 2025. Join us from 6:30 to 9:00 at the VFW Hall (630 Hood St. NE). Masks and vaccinations recommended, but not required.  They hope to create a welcoming atmosphere for both new and experienced dancers, with circles, squares, and contras designed to foster success and fun for all.

The Pringle Creek Band will make music (Dennis Rothrock, Louise Rothrock, Shawn Morford, Jeff Graham), and Ric Goldman from Portland will call with gender-neutral terms.

Admission is on a sliding scale, $5-10 per person, cash only at the door.

Newcomer session at 6 pm

Dancing 6:30-9:00 pm
