2016 Southside Social and Barn Dance--changes and new information!

The Southside Social and Barn Dance is set for 

July 15th-17th, 2016.  

We love this event, which began as a way for our friends and family to get together for an evening of shared food, fun, and music.  It has grown quite a bit over the years and we've had many amazing experiences.

Last year we found ourselves saddled with a group of jerks.  And a few solitary ones.  Their behavior affected many of us, particularly our residents.  It was disheartening to say the least.  We wish to spread the word that we are making a few changes this year in hopes of reducing the risk of jerks and bad behavior.  If you've caused trouble in the past, you'll be turned away at the gate. If we don't know you, and none of our good friends know you, you'll likely be turned away.  If you have bad behavior, you will have to leave the property.

We're also making more fun for our friends and family. We're planning to bring back some fun workshops, there will be a kids art project, we're doing additional lighting installations, and more.  We are scaling down on the beverages a bit, but will happily share with our family and friends.  If you want to help with anything-parking, kids area monitoring/special activities, security, workshops, pre or post fair work,etc. please let us know! We love help!

All of this means that the rest of us will have so much more fun without jerks! We love the Social and we love the wonderful folks who've helped us create great memories over the years.  We'll post more info and the lineup soon!
