folk dancing on stage inside a tent on a hot day

Dancers from out of town, the Barvinok Ukrainian Dance School of Mississauga, swirled, jumped, pranced, bounced, and skipped on the stage set up behind St. Josaphat’s yesterday afternoon. I think the Ontario and Ukrainian Arts Foundation Dancers of Rochester, NY were there too. The photos only give a hint of how energetic and joyfully the dances are performed. These young people were refreshing to watch exhibiting skill and stamina despite the heat and humidity in the tent.
