    Why settle when you can have the very best. You deserve it. While others may get by on industrial asparagus, you are offered the special chance to partake of the all organic, Wild Asparagus. This fresh juicy treat will be available in Portland on the third weekend of November. We’ve saved you a big serving.

    Bucking up the experience even more, you don't need to have training to enjoy The Engine Room. The power and smooth purring of the motor will drive you around the dance floor.

    Directing your adventure and helping you to be in the right place at the right time, we have the Captain of contra calling, George Marshall.

    Alongside and assisting you to glide and slide like an Olympic ice skater, will be Lisa Greenleaf, the Gold Standard of New England Callers.

    Registration for this rave is now open and going fast. Your favorite partners will be there and looking to dance with you.

    Cost is $195; and for dancers 30 and under 35, $125. Register on-line and pay by check, PayPal, or credit card Dancearama-2024-11-15-Flier
