2011 State Fair Remembered

Celtic Motion heads to the Fairgrounds this afternoon for its last performance at the 2011 Indiana State Fair, so it seemed like a good time to remember this year's outing.  Here are a few of our favorite shots, courtesy of Tim Biddle of Photo Memories by TK.

2010 State Fair Remembered

The Celtic Motion dancers successfully tackled 4 performances at the 2010 Indiana State Fair in August.  After braving one of the hottest days on record for our first show, things cooled off a bit and both dancers and audience were much happier.  Some of our favorite CM alums came to cheer us on, which was so nice of them.  Following the Fair, the dancers took a little time off to rest and recuperate.  But all good things must come to an end, so we're back in the swing of things as we prepare for our next 2 performances: the 61st Annual Christmas Gift & Hobby Show, and the 2010 International Festival.
