Hi Contrarians! There is a temporary glitch on our website (contradance.org) and we are working on it. So this is just a recap of what’s going on.

Tomorrow : The Flying Howes - Ed Howe on fiddle, Tami Howe on percussion - will transubstantiate your dance experience!

Next week: Techno Contra with DJ Wendy Graham on Friday, September 19!

If you’re NOT going to ECD’s Fandango weekend, plan to be wowed by the high-tech playlist with Brasstown caller Wendy Graham!

Wendy Graham brings her Techno Contra style to Decatur Rec on September 19!

Weekly gentle reminder: please check in and pay at the Decatur Rec staff desk before entering the dance hall. Regular admission is $15; people with limited income can pay $7.

THANK YOU to all the VOLUNTEERS who keep our dance running smoothly! Here’s how you can help:

  • Come early to help with heavy lifting for Sound setup

  • Sweep the dance floor before the dance

  • Set out fans (and chairs, if needed)

  • Assemble the caller stand

  • Keep the info desk supplied with name tags and markers

  • Sweep the dance floor after the dance

  • Help put away chairs, tables, sound equipment, fans, and caller stand - we must be out of the building by 11 pm!

  • Enjoy a “bit and a bite” at a local eatery after the dance - to celebrate a job well done!

And thank YOU for your support of Atlanta Contra Dance!
