It’s that time of year again!

As we enter our 10th year we will be holding our annual Carshalton Day of Dance next Saturday 23rd September.

We will be joined by some of the teams who have supported us over the years, dancing around the village from 11.30am.

From 11.30am- 12.30pm we will be met by 11 other sides at Sassis in the Grove where each will perform a show dance.

At 12.30pm we will be met by Carshalton Straw Jack and a visiting giant from Hastings, Hannah (weather permitting). From Sassis we will conduct a short parade around Grove Park, do come along and join in!

From 1.15- 4pm there will be dancing at The Hope, High Street next to Oxfam, Grove Park entrance next to The Sun and the CryerArts Centre.

After this we will head to our home pub, The Hope, where from 4.30- 5.30pm there will be more show dances from all sides.

The sides joining us will be some of the friends of Black Swan who have danced with and supported us over the last ten years-

• East Surrey Morris Men from…East Surrey!
• Datchet Border Morris from Windsor
• Pennyroyal Clog Dancers from Carshalton
• The Wild Hunt from Croydon
• Brixton Tatterjack’s from…Brixton!
• Royal Liberty Morris from Kent
• London Pride Morris from SW London

We would also like to thank all the sides who couldn’t make it but have sent us wonderful wishes for our 10th year of dancing.

So….we do hope to see lots of friends and locals on Saturday in Carshalton for what we hope will be a great day of music and dance, and the odd beer 😊🍻🖤💜🪈🪗🎻🎸🪕🥁🎩
