NEWS from AUGUSTA HERITAGE!!

Good news for dancers -- Dance Week at Augusta has been moved back to Week 5, the same week as Old Time Week and Vocal Week! As many of you know, Dance Week was moved to Week 4 in 2007. That proved to be a mistake, since many people enjoyed the strong ties among Dance, Old Time and Vocal weeks and the opportunity to take classes in any of the three. A petition to move it back was started in 2006, when the switch to Week 4 was announced, and it garnered many signatures.

Augusta has recognized the wide support for having the three theme weeks together during Week 5, and has responded by moving Dance Week back to where it belongs. Coordinator Cis Hinkle has lined up a great staff for next summer – Carol Ormand will share the calling with Cis, with music provide by bands Notorious and Charlottesville-based Avant Gardener. A variety of workshops (including a hip-hop class!) will be run by staff members Matthew Duveneck, Matt Olwell, Eileen Carson, Emily Oleson, and Ann Kilkelly.

Kathleen Lavengood, who joined Augusta as Director in 2007, has resigned. Gerry Milnes, Augusta’s folklorist and Old-Time Week coordinator has been named Interim Director. Long-time Augusta volunteer and supporter Joyce Rossbach will join the Augusta staff in February and will eventually take over as Director. That’s more good news for dancers – Joyce is a contra dancer and dedicated caller!

Keep checking the Augusta website (www.augustaheritage.com) for updates and registration info. See you on the dance floor!
