At Great Alne Long Weekend -
W
e very much wish to pass joy of folk activities to families & young people.
Obstacles now exist for broad education of school age young people outside classrooms in school-time.
Concessions enable families with young people to attend certain parts (eg Sat daytime) economically.
But ESPECIALLY -

Grandparents, aunts, uncles, cousins !
You who once used to enjoy your folk dance & song -
Please take this opportunity to share the joy you have experienced.
Bring along young members of your wider family.
