Dreaming of Finland Dance to be Jan. 23 -- fund raiser for Kivajat Dancers

HANCOCK -- The Dreaming of Finland Dance will be held from 7 p.m. to 10 p.m. on Friday, Jan. 23, at the Finnish American Heritage Center in Hancock to raise funds to help the Kivajat Dancers youth group perform in Finland this summer.

The Thimbleberry Band will be playing that good old-time "Finn Hall" music -- polka, schottische, waltz, maybe swing! Every dollar raised will be matched from a Finn Fest grant. Tickets are $5 (so the kids will get $10 for every ticket sold!).

Come and dance on the Keweenaw's best dance space -- it's for the kids!
