NOTE:

Palo Alto contra's music is provided this Saturday by the Palo Alto Community
Band, organized by Derya Akin.  Set lists, rehearsals, and coaching got us a
very tight sound the last time we did this and we expect the same.  For more
info get in touch with Derya via pacommunitycontradanceband@gmail.com

Saturday's English dance in San Francisco unites two musicians from far-flung
reaches (Bill Jensen from Portola Valley on the Peninsula and Jon Berger from
Sebastopol in the North Bay) with East Bay-based world-traveler Sharon Green
for what should be a very tasty program.
