We will be providing lunch for everyone, and have an afternoon break and an evening break. If you are staying for the evening Palo Alto dance, there will be a half hour to get dinner nearby (or eat a brown bag supper).
The Palo Alto Contra is in the same location at 8 pm, with calling by Eric Black and Lea Smith, and music by Common Farmer. This will be an excellent opportunity to practice what you've learned with a large group of dancers.
