June 21, 2010 — Folk dancing, logging, quilting and barn dancing are all a part of our western American heritage. The latest guide includes a few events and organizations that keep these old traditions alive.

Spokane Area Folk Dancing
The greater Spokane area hosts over 50 square dancing, round dancing and clogging dances, workshops and events each month. With something happening almost every day of the week, the area features 27 clubs and associations in the greater Spokane area covering Clarkston in the south to Colville in the north and Cheney in the west to Coeur d'Alene in the east. If you're looking for some good old-fashioned American fun and exercise, check out their Web site for more information - squaredancespokane.org
