This September the Avren Municipality and the Russian Youth Complex Longoz will be joint hosting the first annual International Folklore Festival in Kamchia. The festival will last two days, Sept 21 & 22, and will feature acts from Bulgaria, Russia, Moldova, and if I can get everything in order America.
The youth director told me about the festival and asked if I could coordinated with other Americans in the area and have an act entered into the competition. She thinks it will be nice to have another culture represented, and since there are so many of us around here I said yes.
None of us can sing, so we were going to do a medley dance of common American dances ie YMCA, Chicken Dance, Electric Slide. It is a folklore festival though, and I gathered from my last conversation with the director that the American act needs to be more 'traditional'. Therefore, I have decided on line dancing to 'Cotton Eye Joe'. Hopefully we will be able to start practices next week.
