Congratulations to committee member Linda Bond, who led The newly formed Coastal Cloggers to their first public performance at the recent Ritz Acoustic Club Open Mic Night on Thursday 3rd June 2010. We are really proud to support Linda, her clogging side and the fabulous musicians, who are demonstrating one of the spin-offs of organising a Folkfest. A few years ago, I am sure that most of the inhabitants of this area had never seen an Appalachian Clogging side perform. However, our insistence in including a full dance programme to the fest every year, has created the desire to get a new local side together, and with the continued hard work of Linda, the Musicians and all of the loyal participants, they now have a side to be proud of. Look out for them at the Folkfest and give them your support. If you would like to get involved, they meet and practice on Monday evenings at the Baptist Church Hall, College St. Burnham-on-Sea at 7.00pm, so get along and have a go. Much more fun than going to the gym!
