05 Jan 09 A Meeting of the Morris in Pittsburgh, and Jim and Karin dance a jig

Following the success of the “other” morris danceout in Frick Park on Halloween Eve, Jim, Tory, Karin and Tom were looking for ways to keep the momentum going, and really get their morris on. To that end, they arranged to dance a jig at the English Country dance on November 11th (Jim and Karin dancing, Tory playing - Tom was out of town). Before the dance they also planned to meet up for dinner with some of the former Pittsburgh morris dancers.

A good time was had by all at the dinner and the dance, and Karin and Jim’s jig was very well received. By the time the evening was over we had 8 dancers and a musician (all former morris dancers) signed up as interested in joining a morris team in Pittsburgh!! We were on our way!
