Do-Si-Do in Marion598 viewsOn Sunday, September 14, the first of what is hoped to be an annual series of Marion Square Dances was held inside the Marion Community Center. Although initially slated to take place in the parking lot adjacent to the Marion General Store, the weekend’s rainy weather forced the event indoors. Caller Jim Schell of Lakeville had veteran square dancers and novices alike promenading, allemanding, bowing to their partners and do-si-doing with ease. (Photo by Robert Chiarito).
