T-Acadie folk trio, dance band at MidCoast Maine Community Square Dance Party, March 16
MORRILL — The next MidCoast Maine Community Square Dance Party will be held Sunday, March 16, 2025, at Morrill Community Center (old Honesty Grange 83).
This month’s band, T-Acadie, a folk trio and dance band from central Maine, part of the region including the Canadian maritime provinces known as Acadia ("T-Acadie" is Cajun French slang for "a little Acadia"). Pam Weeks (fiddle, mountain dulcimer), Jim Joseph (button accordion, concertina, banjo), and Bill Olson (guitar, bass) have been happily playing music together for almost thirty-five years, according to a news release. Right from the beginning they discovered their common love for French Canadian and old time Southern dance tunes, Cajun music, and for singing in three-part harmony.
Your callers will be Chris Ricciotti, and guest caller Bill Olson.
Square Dance Party begins at 4 p.m. Potluck dinner begins at 6 p.m.
"This is a warm, welcoming and inclusive community event," said Christopher Ricciotti.
All dances will be taught. No partner or experience needed. Beginners and families welcome.
Please bring snack foods to share (if you are only coming for the dance), and you can bring them upstairs into the dance hall. Please bring a dinner potluck if you are planning to stay for the potluck. You are also welcome to bring both.
Volunteers are needed to help with set up and clean up after the dance. If you can help, please contact Chris ahead of time by text or phone at 207-382-8300, or by email at Ricciotti@aol.com. Volunteers get in for free.
