SUMMARY:2026 Whitewater Whirl Contra Dance Weekend
DESCRIPTION:Welcome to the 2026 Whitewater Whirl. Whether you’re a dedicated\, would-not-miss-it Whirler or new to the weekend\, we look forward to dancing with you! The weekend is held at the Fayette County Park 4-H camp near Fayetteville\, WV. Online registration is now open. at https://www.footmad.org/whirl\nThe Bands\nLouisville-based Hot Coffee Breakdown is one of the most popular bands on the contra dance weekend circuit. Tom Cunningham’s fiery fiddle combines with the driving rhythms of Kate Sanders on keyboard and Luis de Leon on percussion and harmonica. Their dynamic range and musical crescendos will make you want the dance to go on forever!\nWe welcome The Hollertones–Paul Brown on banjo\, Linda Scutt on fiddle\, Jeanie Thieken on guitar and vocals and Nick Weiland on bass–for their Whirl debut. Their lend of traditional\, old time and Celtic music has made them popular at contra dances throughout the Midwest and East Coast.\nThe callers\nThe talented Darlene Underwood from Cincinnati returns for her second Whirl to spread happiness\, connection and fun. It’s a Whirl debut for the talented and very funny Bob Isaacs\, choreographer of so many creative dances\, who’s driving all the way from Princeton\, NJ (thanks\, Bob).\nWe’re delighted that Gaye Fifer will again join us to teach the Beyond the Basics waltz workshop. Regular Whirlers know that Gaye called at every Whirl from 2005 to 2024. She’s taking a break\, but we hope she’ll be back as a regular Whirl caller in future.\nIn 2024\, we added a late-night techno contra with DJ Polly Whittaker teaming with “Queen Darlene.” It’s back by popular demand\, retitled as “DJ Contra\,” and with “King Bob” on the team.\nOur sound engineer\, maestro Hanno Meingast\, will be making the music in the hall sound great.\nAccommodation and meal plan\nCabin accommodation (metal frame bunk beds) or camping onsite at the Fayette County Park 4-H camp near Fayetteville\, WV is included in the weekend price. When you register\, let us know if you’ll be staying in one of the cabins\, designated as coed\, women and men.\nYou can pitch your tent anywhere\, but if you’re pulling a camper the camp staff will tell you where to park.\nThe camp will open on Thursday night\, April 30\, for early arrivals. Consider staying Sunday night\, May 3\, hiking or rafting in the New River Gorge.\nCafé One Ten in Oak Hill\, WV\, will provide catering—a five-meal plan with vegetarian options. Jennifer Horrocks and Heather Oelker will be running the kitchen and dining hall\, with Jennifer preparing her signature desserts for Saturday dinner. Heather\, designated as official Whirl coffee mug curator\, will be bringing her full cafe collection.\nFinally\, we know that some of you (I’m not saying who!) struggle up and down the hill from the dance hall to the dining hall. This year\, we’re working with the camp management to arrange a golf cart shuttle service to conserve your dancing energy!\nWe’ll see you at the Whirl!\nDavid\, Chair\, Whirl planning committee
