Playford-to-the-Present 2013

Here are photos from our 13th Annual Playford-to-the-Present 2013 English Country Dance Ball. The ball was held on Saturday, October 5, 2013, at the Scottish Rite Cathedral in Pasadena, California. Dance leader Chris Page presided over the event, and Bonfire (Bonnie Insull, Frank Hoppe, and Richard Scher) provided the live music.
