Exhibitions

Many people look forward to festivals and conventions so they can see some of the spectacular exhibition groups that perform their special routines. We will have an exciting array of exhibition groups for you in Pendleton. We will post schedule information as soon as it has been determined.

High Country Dancers

High Country Dancers come from across Colorado's Front Range with many members having over 40 years of square dancing experience. Their performances are a mixture of traditional squares & more imaginative sets that include hexagons, rectangles, and an 8 couple royal double square, all interlaced with their distinctive aerial figures. They also perform quadrilles, contras, waltzes, and Latin rhythms. What is most evident about this group, mostly between 50 and 70 years old, is their love of dancing and good fun. They quickly demonstrate that dancers don't have to slow down as they get older! Everyone enjoys the energy & enthusiasm they put into their performances. Originally organized in 2001, they have been dancing at National Square Dance Conventions each year, have been featured at the USAWest Conventions, and perform for churches, granges, senior living centers, and other events around the Denver, CO area.
