The 16th Annual Grand Civil War Ball Saturday June 25, 2022 Live music provided by vintage dance band, Spare Parts. Join us for a delightful evening at the historic Waverly Community House as we travel back in time to reenact a mid-19th century formal ball. Dance the night away with live music by vintage dance band, Spare Parts, as they play authentic music from the Civil War era including polkas, waltzes, and several reels such as the Virginia Reel and Snowball Reel. Vintage dance instructor, Susan de Guardiola, will precept the ball. She will offer a brief instruction before each set dance and then lead you through the sequences that comprise each dance. It's fun! It's easy! All dances will be taught, so no prior dance experience is necessary. Period dress or dress blues/grays are admired, but not required. Ball tickets are $35 per person or $60 per couple. COVID-19 Policy: The Ball will be held in a large hall with plenty of windows allowing for good air flow. At this time, we do not require proof of vacination and will not require individuals to wear a mask, although people may do so if they wish. We ask that you do not attend if you have symptoms consistent with COVID-19, have been recently diagnosed with COVID-19, or were in recent contact with someone diagnosed with COVID-19. Useful links:
