September 11-13 at Camp Sacramento.

If you want to do the entire weekend we need to know by Wednesday September 9, 2009 as we have to let the camp know how many full time campers we have by Thursday September 10.

Drop ins on Saturday are welcome, the cost is $10.00 per event: morning workshop, afternoon workshop and evening party, for a total of $30.00 if you come all day Saturday.

You can buy meals at the camp. $10.00 for lunch and $15.00 dinner.

For those who learned most of the dances we will be teaching at Stockton. Just come up for the party we will be playing the taught dances plus request.
