This year’s dance features The WDEV Radio Rangers and friends for dance music, and a silent auction of over 60 items to bid on. This year’s auction has a tandem bicycle, a Concept ll rower, quilt, wood hand crafted items, gift certificates and more. Craftsbury School’s PTO and The Farmer and the Spud food truck will have meals to buy. Blackbird Bistro is returning to provide the cash bar.
