Hey late-teen lapsed dancers - remember when you tried this (a long time back?) Encourage one or more older dancing folkies to come - to bring YOU over the main part of weekend.
Share the fun & exercise 
- It's FREE for all u/18's -
when accompanied by
ANY paying adult.
Generally only Friday eve's Contra, Sat & Sunday

- Primarily for Parents (or Grandparents) with u/18's. -
But any (parentally agreed for u16's) adult in a responsible role is OK.

A chance all to try playing the Pan Pipes, drums, handchimes, Morris... Visit & share much more !
At Great Alne Long Weekend we very much wish to pass joy of folk activities to families & young people.
Today, there are obstacles for a broader education of school age young people outside a classroom in school-time.
We hope this concession will allow families with young people to attend a part of the Long weekend economically.
But ESPECIALLY -

Grandparents, aunts, uncles, cousins. You who once used to enjoy your folk dance & song -
Take this opportunity to share your joy & bring young members of your wider family.
