The club held a very enjoyable Barn Dance at the Parish Hall in Bere Alston on Saturday 8th March with music played by the fabulous Dartmoor Pixie Band.
Once again, there was a wide range of ages amongst the audience and all joined in the dances with fun and energy.
In addition to the Oggy-Oggy pasties, members brought tasty side dishes and desserts, creating a veritable feast for us to enjoy.
As an additional piece of entertainment, Mark from the band and club member, John Eason gave us an amusing performance with their Jig Dolls:
“Sailor Jan” and “Wonson” the Wonder Dog” – 140 years old and Mark inherited them from his father, who founded the Dartmoor Pixie Band.
John Eason’s dolls – “Pete the Pirate” and “Fortescue Fox”.
There was lots of help to clear up at the end and we went home having had a great evening together.
