73rd Year Virtual Camp and Teachers/Musicians Fundraiser
WE’VE ADDED AN AUCTION TO THE LINE-UP
At Stockton Folk Dance Camp every year, we shop at the Scholarship Bazaar, enjoy the spirited bidding at the live auction, and carefully keep an eye on the bids at the silent auction. While our Virtual Camp team members were unable to recreate the bazaar and the live auction this year, they were able to simulate a silent auction. Some items that have been donated are shown above. You can view the items currently posted for the auction on Facebook (no bidding allowed until July 14) by clicking here, or using the Facebook search function to find “Stockton Folk Dance Camp Auction 2020.” Stop by and scroll through the items, check your bank account, and plan your bidding strategies. Bidding will open on Tuesday, July 14! Please see the additional information about the auction at the end of this email.More great items or ideas would make the auction evern more exciting, and there is still time to add yours. Email Julie East or Bobi Ashley for instructions for donors.

WE’VE GOT MORE COMMERCIALS FOR YOU TO SHARE
More advertisments have been created for our Virtual Camp this year!

More commercials are being prepared; we will tell you about them in the next E-News. Be sure to share these with friends who might not have heard about our up-coming dance adventures in cyberspace.

BE SURE TO TAKE AND SHARE PHOTOS!
Please take photos of yourself dancing during the Big Week! If you are able to dance in small groups — perhaps outside, perhaps six feet apart — it would be great to have photos of those happy occasions!
