Scottish Weekend Inc. emphasizes the best in live music, fine teaching, and "controlled abandon." We begin Friday night with supper and a welcome dance. Two morning classes and one in the afternoon are offered on Saturday, followed by time to relax, swim, shop, and socialize. That evening our piper leads us in a grand march followed by an elegant full-dress ball and a ceilidh. After another class on Sunday morning, all participants gather for the popular combined class, then lunch and farewells until next year.
In 1988, a group of Scottish Country Dancers from the Washington DC and Philadelphia area dance groups decided to start a Scottish Weekend in the Mid-Atlantic area, emphasizing the very best in live music, quality teaching, good food and "controlled abandon."
