evening it will be! We'll start off with an open mike from 2 :00 to

their stuff. Then we will fill four hours with some of South
Florida's best string instrument players and Florida's First Lady Of Folk,
Valerie C.Wisecracker. To top it off, we'll end the show with
audience participation in Contra Dancing. Like square dancing except each
couple moves up or down the line so you have a new four person square
after the routine; don't worry, we'll teach you. Then, a
campfire song circle from 7 to 9 P.M. They'll be food for sale in
case you won't be staying in the park. Walk-ins and drive-ins
