Barony of Madrone

We've got some fun and friendly dances lined up so all can participate, from newcomers to frequent performers. I might also pull out some favorite new dances learned at the 50 Year Celebration. Join us and help establish a new tradition of dancing in Madrone's canton of
Porte de l'Eau on the first Thursday of each month! Garb is not required,
but comfortable shoes are a good idea. Our son wants you to know that
kids are welcome, and can join us in dancing or can play inside or outside.

Please contact Master Trahaearn ap Ieuan, Dancemaster at dancemaster@baronyofmadrone.net for directions.
