Bay Area Country Dance Society
Family Week is a part of and partially funded by the non-profit Bay Area Country Dance Society.
The work to put on Family Week is shared by a volunteer committee of about 15 members who meet monthly throughout the year. Some of the key members for 2024:
Programmer
Anne Bingham Goess enjoys wearing many hats (and wreaths!). On staff as a fiddler and singer over the years, she is also serving this year as programmer. Anne and her husband Kevin first came to Family Week in 2003 with their son Frank; this year she’ll be joined again by her goddaughter Julia.
Camp Managers
Zia Rauwolf and her daughter, Lysandra, have been coming to camp since 2013. Zia likes to play Irish flute accompanied by her husband, Ben. She’s loved serving this community as camp manager since 2019.
Sola Grantham and her family, the SGs, developed their love of dance in the MIT Tech Squares community in Boston. They have been attending Family Week since 2015. Sola is currently updating the website and loves finding ways for community members to chip in that bring them enjoyment.
Registrar
Katie Riemer grew up in the SF Bay Area Contra and folk dance community. She attended her first Family Camp in 2013 and has been at every camp since with her son, Crane. As registrar, Katie fields emails and phone calls and texts regarding camp with enthusiasm and care.
Treasurer
Shelby Solomon, Vicki, and family have been attending Family Week almost every year since 1995. When their children left home for college, they brought their nieces. In 2019 their eldest daughter Rory returned to camp with her family,. Their daughter Jamie is the adult overseeing Teen Town and their niece Gracie has been running Snack Shop. Shelby has been Treasurer for Family Week since 2007.
