Unfortunately, we need to cancel tonight's dance.

Done again!
UGH!

The driving is just too unpredictable. Sunny and bright and clear one minute and then the next minute no sun, a whiteout and no visibility!

Watching the 511 Road Traveller Information maps all morning has been like watching a wild juggling act. Roads leading to Fergus fluctuate in what seems like the roll of a dice. First clear, then snow covered, then reduced visibility, then clear, then reduced visibility, then closed, then open and clear, then reduced visibility!

Recognizing that many of our dance community drive from other communities to attend,
we do not wish for anybody to have to drive through white-out conditions either to get here, nor to get home.

So we have made the disappointing decision to cancel tonight Fergus Contra Dance.

Stay home tonight.
Stay safe!

And mark your calendars
The next Contra Dance in Fergus will be Fri Feb 27th

We so look forward to reconnecting then!

Edited - Feb 23, 2026 Fergus Contra Dance CANCELLED due to WEATHER
Please stay home, and stay safe.
We will see you on Fri Feb 27th for the next Contra Dance

We have been super hesitant to jinx the weather ...
but it's looking like this Friday will be good!

The forecast is . . .
Early evening > cloudy with clear breaks
Late evening > partly cloudy

Let's keep those good vibes going!
So mark your calendars
This Friday start your year with a Contra Dance
that also plays tribute to the Scottish Baird.
WAY TOO MUCH FUN TO BE HAD!

Mother Nature has done it again!

I am so sorry have to pass along that

... TONIGHT'S CONTRA DANCE EVENT HAS BEEN CANCELLED.

Sigh! And I was so looking forward to celebrating with each of you.

Mark your calendars - Friday Jan 23 is the first Contra Dance of 2026.


IF you live locally and still can drive safely tonight
Janice has offered to host a potluck social gathering at her place (125 Union St W, Fergus). Bring your potluck items and arrive anytime after 6:30 pm (NOT at the church hall!) ... and we'll wrap up the 2025 year with a time of visiting and eating together.
