Village Hall
108 West Main Street, Fairfield, PA
Organizers Wayne Belt and Norma Calhoun invite you to participate in the seventh year of Victorian dancing in Fairfield. Each monthly dance is an enjoyable social occasion focused on learning the dances and etiquette of the Civil War era. The dance masters, Briant and Karin Bohleke, will demonstrate and call each dance. They are elegant dancers and excellent teachers, who enjoy sharing their authentic reconstructions of period dances from original sources. The fall dances will prepare participants for the Remembrance Day Ball on November 20, 2004. The spring dances will prepare participants for our series finale ball on June 11, 2005.
All levels of dancers can join the fun. Well-behaved children may attend; they need to be able to follow the calls to participate in the group formation dances.
For the informal dances, wear modern casual clothes or informal period attire, if you prefer. For the ball on June 11, 19th Century or modern semi-formal attire is encouraged, and white gloves are required. Metal heel plates are not allowed on the dance floor.
Light refreshments will be served. The cost for the informal dances is $6 per person. Tickets for the ball will cost $15 per person and will be available in April, 2005.
The Village Hall has a beautiful wood dance floor. The hall has been renovated with new restrooms and a new central heating, air-conditioning and ventilation system.
Fairfield is located about 8 miles southwest of Gettysburg on RT 116. The Village Hall is in the middle of Fairfield on RT 116, in the same block as the Sunny Ray grocery store. Park on the street in front, or in the lot behind the building.
