THE PROGRAM begins with dinner on Friday evening at Silver Bay. Your registration covers six meals, two nights' lodging, snacks, and the entire dance program. The program ends Sunday afternoon at 3 p.m. with the last waltz of the final dance party. There will be several activities available concurrently, throughout most of the weekend.

The weekend is particularly well-designed for contra dancers who want to dabble in swing dancing.

TWO DANCE AREAS (with wood floors) will usually be operating simultaneously: one will be used primarily for contras; the second primarily for swing dance. Both areas will feature Dance Parties on Friday night, Saturday night and Sunday afternoon. Otherwise, these areas will be used for workshops and/or special theme dances.

OTHER AREAS will be available for participatory singing, informal jam sessions, and other activities. Or you can stroll the grounds, relax, and hang out in this beautiful setting!

SILVER BAY is situated along 6,000 feet of shoreline on the undeveloped side of shimmering Lake George and is surrounded by the magnificent Adirondack Mountains. The entire campus is a registered National Historic Site. Its 600 acres (with access to 1,000 more) are dotted with 65 buildings, from rustic cottages and lodges to the gracious 1902 Inn. Their stone facades, warm fireplaces, tolling bells, and rocker-filled porches reveal Silver Bay's charm and history. Throughout the grounds, both indoors and outdoors, there are numerous spaces for jamming, singing, or just hanging out. Not to mention DANCING! Visit the Silver Bay website at www.silverbay.org
