The popular Amy Carroll will be the caller. The band will be the talented “Creekside” with Cathie Whitesides on fiddle, Frank Blade on guitar and Cynthia Dillon on piano. Whitsides is a diverse musician and many have danced to the variety of music she plays. The hall will be decorated in its Valentine’s Day finest.
