Fiddle skills and a whole lot more

Our goal is to give opportunity to people that want another opportunity to learn and hone their skills, as well as give folks who wouldn't otherwise have the chance to try out fiddling an opportunity to give it a try and see if they like it.  We will also be hosting an old time family dance on the Saturday evening which will have a whole host of entertainment and square dance calling, and great family fun.
