Springfield International Folk Dancers

After the winter storm caused a week's delay, the Springfield International Folk Dancers attended the Robert Burns Dinner, sharing Scottish dances with attendees. We were pleased to be joined by an energetic group. The event was enjoyable, and the invitation was greatly appreciated. Dwain's photography services were also greatly appreciated.

We will be there for dancing at 7:30.

Reminder: grab your Burns tickets now!! Open to the public - please share with your community!

Semi-formal event. Kilts & Period Dress are encouraged. Celebrate the Bard of Scotland's 267th birthday with a full evening of dinner, toasts, haggis and poetry!

SIFD entertained with a program of Lithuanian dances for the Lithuanian American Club of Central Illinois, on Saturday December 6. It included one demonstration dance. Then many club members participated in learning and dancing two Lithuanian folk dances.

Another great time at Oktoberfest.

We want to say thank you to Keith for the videos and photos. We had a great time thank you for having us.
