Plans were made, in 1980, to hold beginner classes on Saturday nights. At the first class, 19 beginners from Saltcoats and Yorkton, learned Corn Rigs. Classes were held at Fairview School, under the sponsorship of the Yorkton and District Scottish Ethnic Group. (From Let’s Dance – A History of Scottish Country Dancing in Saskatchewan.)
We welcome all dancers (and anyone who wishes to dance).
When and Where
We meet Saturday evenings 7:30 – 9:30 p.m. from late September /early October until mid-April [remember this is not carved in stone] in the Holy Trinity Anglican Church Hall, 165 2nd Ave. N. at the corner of Darlington St. E.
