Lambertville Country Dancers

What is LCD?

Lambertville Country Dancers (locally known as LCD) is an all-volunteer, non-profit organization dedicated to promoting music and dance. LCD's Contra and English dance series originally began in Yardley, PA, in 1980 but soon migrated to St. Andrew's Episcopal Church in Lambertville, NJ. Since 1991, LCD's tradition of great dances has continued in other locations.

LCD sponsors both a 1st Friday English dance and a 2nd Friday contra dance series, as well as occasional 5th Friday dance parties.

You may be familiar with Steve Zakon-Anderson's great contra dance, "Trip to Lambertville" which he wrote to honor LCD's dances in recognition of the great joy we dance with. Come join us!

English dances are held on the first Friday of every month, and contra dances (currently suspended)were held on mostly 2nd Fridays, at varying locations in the Delaware Valley. Check the calendar for special 5th Friday dances, or other occasional special events, including the annual February Fling Experienced English Dance Party!

Because the Delaware Valley is blessed with many of the better musicians, bands and callers in both the English and contra dance communities, as well as a strong core of volunteers to help produce our dances, LCD's dances have a tremendous spirit.

To volunteer as a Contra Dance Manager, please call Susan Pierson at 215 348 8471. To make a donation to help keep LCD going or to volunteer to help in any way, please contact any LCD Board member.

Please call 609-882-7733, to volunteer as an English Dance Manager or to help. We always welcome (and need) help with refreshments, setting up before a dance, or cleaning up after a dance.

LCD is a 501(c)(3) organization. To read LCD's bylaws, please be sure you are able to view PDF files.
