A fiddlers’ contest will commence at 3:30 pm - sign up by 3:00 pm to enter. At 6:30 pm, right in front of the stage, there will be a square dance with the Maple Hill Rounders and dance caller Lynn Frederick. Everybody is welcome to dance - no experience necessary. All dances will be taught on the spot. The dance will run from approximately 6:30 pm until 8:30 pm. In addition to excellent music and historical exhibits, there will be kite flying and other activities for children. Food, refreshments, CDs from the performers, and festival t-shirts, designed by local musician and artist Zach Smolko, will be available for purchase. And as always, musicians are encouraged to bring their instruments. Spontaneous jamming is strongly encouraged Admission is $6 for adults and teens and free to children 12 and under.
