Come ready to get Seal-y and have a blast exploring a creek-side trail and get curious about all the things plants and animals are up to as they prepare for the colder months.

FREE Scottish Country Dance Class
11/15/2025 - 10:00 am - 12:00 pm at Littlefield Celtic Center
1124 Cleveland Ave
You’re invited to a FREE Scottish Country Dance Class on Saturday, November 15th from 10am-12pm at the Littlefield Celtic Center in Mount Vernon.
SCD classes at Littlefield Celtic Center are general, multi-level sessions with some step practice and teaching of dances. Once we have a feeling for the make-up of the class, we’d like to focus on beginners and inexperienced dancers for the first 45 minutes, followed by 30 minutes of general social dancing for everyone, and we’ll end with 45 minutes of focus for more experienced dancers.
Beginners are most welcome; we would like to work using a building-block approach where we will review and build on skills learned in the previous class. The goals of RSCDS include “Fun, Fitness, Friendship.” If this sounds appealing, then SCD is for you! If you enjoy dancing socially to wonderful, traditional music, if you would like to try dancing in a team (set) with six or eight other dancers, if you think you might enjoy some energetic but graceful and elegant dancing—with a little bit of courtliness thrown in—then this is for you!
No partner or special clothing is needed. Loose and comfortable is the best. Women often wear skirts (not a requirement). Soft-soled shoes, such as ballet or jazz shoes allow you to move around the floor with ease and to point your toe, but don’t let that prevent you from giving SCD a try.
Bring a cheerful smile, a willingness to listen, and a desire to “have a go”! We look forward to seeing you on the dance floor!

“Single mother Tess Coleman (Jamie Lee Curtis) and her teenage daughter Anna (Lindsay Lohan) couldn’t be more different, and it is driving them both insane.
After receiving cryptic fortunes at a Chinese restaurant, the two wake up the next day to discover that they have somehow switched bodies.
Unable to switch back, they are forced to masquerade as one another until a solution can be found. In the process, they develop a new sense of respect and understanding for one another.”
