SRFN : Events 2002 : Dance Displays

Traditional Dance Displays in the South Riding: 2002 Season

The region has a large number of teams or "sides" dancing various forms of Morris, Sword, Rapper, Garland and Clog, many of which may be seen at public events during the "dancing out" season. The following list is far from complete, being just the information that the Network has been given by the dancers themselves or has contrived to gather; we hope to be able substantially to add to it as the season continues.

Dates, times and locations are correct so far as we know, but it's always a good idea to check before making a special trip, as such things are subject to change. Contact details for these and many other teams are available in the Network's Online Directory, on the Dance Teams & Clubs page.

More general enquiries can be made of Jenny Day, the SRFN Dance Co-Ordinator, who can be contacted by phone on (0114) 2470099, by email at jennyday@btopenworld.com, or via our Contact Form.

Any additional dates or corrections to the information we have here would be welcome.
