Racine Folk Dancers at Oconomowoc 2014
Mike C forwarded this video clip of the Racine group at Oconomowoc:

Also, I started having trouble using realplayer to trim videos, but it turns out that it's even easier to do if you have a Windows 10 PC, just open the video in the "Photos" app, and there's a "Trim" button at the top right.
Sorry it took me a while to get these posted -- there's a limit on the file sizes that can be uploaded, and some of the video clips were too long and had to be trimmed and/or divided up into parts. A handy free tool that can be used for that, by the way, is realplayer
For some reason, blogger seems to be having a lot of trouble uploading the videos after the first one, so I'm going to try doing a separate post for each one.
