This holiday is observed & celebrated on November 29, every year. September is National Square Dance Month! National Square Dancing Day exists to celebrate the square dance form of folk dancing, and is a great excuse to get out and “Dosey Do”. This fun, healthy and simple form of dance with a long history definitely deserves a holiday all of its own, and it has one!
 

September is National Square Dance Month! National Square Day is observed & celebrated on November 29, every year.  The traditional square dance known widely across the United States has its roots in 17th and 18th century Europe.

The purpose of Heritage Dancers is to promote awareness in the public of the historic and artistic value of square dancing, the folk dance which is truly American in origin. Further, to demonstrate through educational exhibitions and entertainment the unique place which square dancing holds in our national culture.

High Country Dancers, organized in 2001, dance a mixture of traditional and modern square dance figures with aerial lifts, all combined into four, six, and eight couple sets. We round out our program with quadrilles, contras, waltzes and Latin rhythms to make every show different. We have danced at every National Square Dance Convention since our organization as well as USA West Conventions. We also dance at many local events to keep us busy all year long. Don't miss our high energy, one-of-a-kind performances.

The act is exactly what it sounds like. Four seated couples maneuver vintage tractors into daisy chains and do-si-dos in front of a live audience. It would be hard to squeeze more nostalgia into a performance that combines made-in-America machines with our “National Folk Dance.”
