There are a few community dances where we continue to do the old dances. In Nelson (of course), we do Chorus Jig every week without fail, and it is considered the high point of the evening. We also regularly dance Money Musk, Lady Walpole's, Petronella, Hull's Victory, Sackett's Harbor, and Rory O'More. Our dancers sound excited whenever these dances are announced. So callers, don't feel that you have to ignore the traditional dances. And if you ever want a refresher on how to dance them, come to Nelson, and to the Ralph Page weekend in January in Durham, NH.
