A MESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDENT ~ Paul O’Donnell
As I noted last month, the holiday season is upon us.
This brings lots of errands to run, parties to attend, and
resolutions to make. It’s important to take time with our
families and re-center our lives. Along those lines, we
are having our Holiday/New Year’s Ceili on Sunday,
January 3rd, so it shouldn’t interfere with other
celebrations. We’d love to have you join us for the first
GWCC Ceili in 2016; if you still have some out-of-town
guests, you could treat them to some fantastic traditional
Irish music.
To stay informed on upcoming events, be sure to see
the schedule section in this newsletter, our webpages
(www.gwcc-online.org and
www.capemaydanceweekend.org) and our Facebook
page (Greater Washington Ceili Club). Wishing All a
Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays, and a Joyous New
Year.
DANCE NOTES ~ Edie O’Donnell, Photos by Susan Krische
We had a light turnout of only 43 dancers at the
GWCC Ceili at Cherry Hill Park on November 22nd, but
those present enjoyed a stellar band and an energetic
dance line-up.
The workshop dance was the Moate Set, with Paul
O’Donnell as our workshop instructor. This set was
taught at our Cape May weekend last month and has
some very interesting moves, especially the third figure,
Dance Notes (Cont.)
where everyone is moving at once in an interlacing St.
Bridget’s Cross. The band, Rambling House, was
comprised of Tina Eck, Joe DeZarn, Patrick Cavanagh, and
Marc Glickman. The tunes were “mighty.”
We warmed up with the first set of dances, the South
Galway Set, the Moate Set, the Ballyvourney Jig Set, and
the Bonfire Dance. Everyone must have been practicing
their cooking skills prior to Thanksgiving, because the buffet
table was overflowing with tasty offerings. The second set
of dances found us enjoying the Kilfenora Set, the Walls of
Limerick, and the West Kerry Set. During the second break
Molly Rehbehn won the 50/50 drawing. We ended the
evening with the Connemara Set, a waltz, and the Clare
Lancers Set. A special moment after the dancing ended was
a fiddle duet by Joe DeZarm and Aidan Pitner, where Aidan

Dance Notes (Cont.)
got to show off his growing skills!
Don't forget our spectacular New Year’s Ceili on
January 3, 2016! See the flyer in this newsletter for
more details
THE SPRING FLING – SAVE THE DATE GWCC’s annual Spring Fling in Shepherdstown,
WV, will be held on April 15th to the 17th. This has
become a multi-state event, with dancers from Ohio,
Pennsylvania, and Delaware attending last year. It is a
wonderful, laid back, easy-going weekend not to be
missed. Please put it on your calendar.
GWCC NEW YEAR’S CEILI
The next GWCC ceili at Cherry Hill RV Park Ballroom
is the New Year’s Ceili on Sunday, January 3, 2016!!! This
is one not to be missed. We have had good attendance at
this ceili in the past and expect the same again this year. It
costs just a little more, as our expenses are higher for this
date, but the music is just as wonderful as ever and the dance
selections are outstanding. Note also that the annual pass
does not apply for entrance to this ceili.
There will be a free drawing for door prizes, including a
non-transferable pass to our Spring Fling Weekend and an
annual membership in GWCC, plus additional prizes. Sodas
will be free and coffee and tea is provided. There is a pot
luck dinner at the first break, so bring something to share,
the food spread is always very good.
Note that the dance starts at 4:00 PM. There is no
workshop and no set of the month, but come early to ensure
you are ready to dance when the band starts playing at 4:00.
Beginning dancers are encouraged to attend, there is
almost always someone in each set who can get new dancers
through the set. See the flyer later in this newsletter. Hope
to see all of you there.
SET DANCING NEWS ~ Don Kaliher
In case some of the newer dancers (and maybe some of
the experienced dancers) don’t know about the magazine Set
Dancing News and the associated Web sites www.sets.ie and
www.setdancingnews.net, I highly recommend subscribing
(the Web sites are free) if you are serious about set dancing.
Bill Lynch publishes the magazine and keeps the Web sites
up to date.
The magazine is bi-monthly and costs $60 per year. It is
full of articles and pictures on various set dancing events
around the world. It has a wonderful calendar of upcoming
set dancing events in Ireland and world-wide. If you are
traveling anywhere, you can get the current scoop on what’s
happening most anywhere you intend to go. The most
recent issue had articles and pictures on our Cape May
Dance Weekend at Rehoboth Beach and on our 30th
Anniversary Ceili. The prior issue had Marilyn Moore’s
article on the South Sligo Summer School (which you read
here first).
If you are involved with set dancing, you are bound to get
your picture in the magazine at some point, if you haven’t
already. We will have one or more copies of the magazine
at the New Year’s Ceili for viewing and will provide
subscription coupons. Otherwise, just send your name and
address, email and phone number, with a check for $60
made payable to Bill Lynch, to Set Dancing News,
Kilfenora, County Clare, Ireland. You won’t be sorry.

THE MONTHLY CCE CEILI
If you haven’t been, or haven’t been recently, to the
Comhaltas Ceoltoiri Eireann (CCE) monthly ceili, now
held at Frying Pan Park Visitor’s Center, it’s time to
give it a try. My wife and I went last week and had a
grand time. There were a number of other GWCC
members in attendance. It is easy to meet people,
everyone is friendly.
The dance is especially good for beginning dancers,
with a number of ceili dances, but there were enough
sets to keep everyone busy. All the dances are called.
The park is easy to get to, Washington beltway to the
Dulles Toll Rd., exit at and left turn onto Fairfax
Parkway (Rt. 286). After two miles or so, right on West
Ox Rd. (Rt. 608), maybe another mile to the entrance to
the park on the right.
The floor is very nice to dance on and they had a nice
spread of food and snacks. The dance is held the second
Saturday of the month, with a lesson at 6:30, dance
starts at 7:00. Cost is $15 for non-members of CCE.
THE DANCE SEASON To give you a sneak peek at the remainder of the
2016 season, the workshop dances for the monthly
GWCC ceilis will be:
January 3: No workshop dance
January 24: Borlin
February 28: Moycullen
March 20: Derrada (Note: 3rd Sunday)
April 24: West Kerry
May 22: Claddagh
All ceilis this year will be on the fourth Sunday of
the month, except March, which will be on the third
Sunday, as the fourth Sunday is Easter.
