A Ukrainian Summer: where to go, what to do...
Heritage Foundation spotlights dance
by Paula Duda
LEHIGHTON, Pa. - The Ukrainian American Heritage Foundation of the Lower Anthracite Regions is hosting its 10th annual folk dance workshop and camp, on Monday, June 28 through Friday, July 2, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., daily, here at the Ukrainian Homestead.
The camp will conclude with a final performance, celebrating the 10th anniversary of the workshop, on Saturday, July 3, at 7 p.m, followed by a dance in the Homestead ballroom. Once again, guest instructor, David Woznak of the Kashtan School of Ukrainian Dance in Parma, Ohio, will provide folk dance instruction for beginners to advanced dancers.
As in years past, the camp features traditional crafts and music, sports, swimming, lunch and a snack. Special features for the 10th annual camp include an evening workshop of swing dancing for high-school age dancers, a 10th anniversary photo exhibit, and a special aid project to assist flood victims in Transcarpathian Ukraine.
The camp is open to children who have completed kindergarten through high schoolers. (Due to increased enrollments, there will be no preschool class this year.)
