Wee Davey's Ceilidh Returns!

A winter snowboard season in Vail would not be complete without the Ceilidh--it's a silly excuse for the men (and women) to put on skirts and dance around to the tunes of bagpipes and accordions. My friend, Wee Davie, has been putting on this Scottish party for six years! So, you can imagine, we're finally starting to get these dances down! Think of square dancing--big group dances, people trotting around in circles, jigging in groups of three, stripping the willow, you get the point. Sound like fun? It totally is. Don't you just want to put on some plaid and jump in?

2010 - Sad year. No Ceilidh.

2011 - The Ceilidh Returns!

Dozens of attendees sported Scottish style kilts!


(while others welcomed other European fashions)


Thank you Davie and Jen for keeping the tradition alive and thank you to all the friends who have celebrated with us over the years!!!

Slainte Va!
