It is now March and we find ourselves beginning to think about our dances for the summer highland games season. We have been learning and practicing a variety of dance styles with an eye to balancing our program between fast jigs and reels and slower strathspeys. As we get towards May and June we will be finalizing our list of dances and establishing dancers’ positions in each dance.

We recently had a fun Sunday afternoon performing for a rehabilitation center in Auburn, WA. We presented six country dances and several Scottish songs and instruments. We even had a Highland dancer present two specialty dances for our audience. We greatly enjoyed performing for them and they enjoyed it as well.
