Fall Folk Dance Camp

Folk Dance Federation of California, South, Inc. Website: https://fallcamp.org/.

Information: A California folk dance camp (2019-present).

On April 10, 2019, an international folk dance camp named "Fall Folk Dance Camp (in Honor of Beverly and Irwin Barr)" was formed in Southern California and supported by the Folk Dance Federation of California, South, Inc. The name was later changed to Fall Camp.

The camp features dance parties plus teaching of favorite Stockton Folk Dance Camp dances for the year. You're invited to spend time with old friends and make new ones in a beautiful setting.

The weekend includes two nights lodging, five meals, a wood dance floor, and leisure dancing. Other optional activities include a poetry workshop, crafts, a morning hike, highlights of the night sky, and the opportunity to participate in a "potluck band," either by singing or playing an instrument.

Fall Camp is held at the Brandeis-Bardin Campus of the American Jewish University about 40 miles northwest of Los Angeles, near Simi Valley, California in November/December.

Historically, in January of 2018, Camp Hess Kramer was renamed "Beverly and Irwin Barr Folk Dance Camp at Hess-Kramer" under the direction of Marc and Jan Rayman and the sponsorship of the Folk Dance Federation of California, South, Inc.. On March 23, 2019, the name was changed to "Folk Dance Camp in Honor of Beverly and Irwin Barr." Then the camp was renamed "Fall Folk Dance Camp" and later simply as "Fall Camp."
