Wellington will again be hosting the camp on Queen’s Birthday weekend (Friday 1-Monday 4 June). The 2012 camp will feature:

Workshops with Gary Dawson from Australia. Gary will be offering a mixed programme featuring Croatian, Transylvanian and other, mainly Balkan, dances. He’ll run the Sunday night dance.

Workshops in French dance, leading to a French bal (community dance).

A Friday Favourites social, giving New Zealand international folkdancers a chance to share and dance their favourite dances with friends from around the country.

A stretch and flex session, to keep us limber for dancing.

The FDNZ AGM, with earlier opportunities for discussion of matters of interest to the folkdance community.

Kate Grace is unwell and, very sadly, will be unable to join us for the French sessions on Saturday. However, others have stepped into the breach and we will still be going French on Saturday afternoon and evening.

We're pleased to announce that Fiona Murdoch and Rae Storey will each do a workshop in the afternoon. We're very grateful to them for undertaking to do this at very short notice, and know that they will do a great job.

For the bal, Chill Jam will be playing for us as we dance dances learned at those workshops and in previous ones, but we also have a special guest band - A Bout de Bretelles. This two-man band from Brittany will provide the authentic French touch and do a guest slot during the bal to lead a few dances and play some of their lovely and lively music.
