Hello Renegade Rose and Bridgetown guests,

Thursday night will be a combined practice for World Beat.

All our welcome. We will be focusing on our shared dances.

It will also be shorter, 7-8.

We will be at Cedarwood Waldorf School, 3030 SW 2nd Ave, Portland, OR 97201

Here are the dances Portland Traveling Morris has in the 'repertoire' from
Russ:

Vandals
Sheriff's Ride

Sweet Jenny Jones
South Australia

Simon's Fancy
Banbury Bill
Princess Royal Double Jig

Three Musketeers/Skirmish
Snap the Line Tight

Valentine

To get to 45 minutes, some patter about what the Morris is, a stick dance,
hanky dance, then a song - repeating as needed.

Warm Regards, Brian
