Hands Five: From the Top!

Albuquerque

It's free to get in, we'll provide some (unleaded) refreshments, and we'll even have someone watching your cars.
We will play a set of music, take a snack break, and then play for a (Contra Dance) for an hour or so. Of course, if you are not a dancer, you can just watch and listen. Or, if you want you can learn on the spot.
We would sure love it if all our friends would join us in this celebration. Hope to see you there!
