The last Tuesday in May and every Tuesday in June (except June 30th) Toronto Scottish Country Dancers enjoy outdoor dancing at Edwards Gardens, which is in Don Mills, south of Lawrence, just west of Leslie. Here's a static aerial view. Here's a live Google map.
The sound of jigs, reels and strathspeys from a live band pervades the area. One avid dancer signed up for courses because she heard the wonderful music from her garden. Spectators are always welcome - bring a lawn chair.
Click here for pictures and a lively write-up about the May 29th, 2007 DITP.
Join us in 2009!
Dancing in the Park begins at 7:00pm and goes 'til dusk.
Edward's Gardens (confusingly signed "Toronto Botanical Garden" at some gates) is at Leslie & Lawrence E. -- the south-west quadrant. We dance at the north side, behind the snack bar/barn.

| The 47th Tartan Ball will be Feb. 20, 2010
|
Every February (since 1964) RSCDS Toronto holds its gala Tartan Ball in the Edwardian splendour of the Concert Hall of the Fairmont Royal York Hotel, Toronto.
Following an elegant meal, dancers don their ghillies while the ballroom is cleared. Non-dancers retire to the balcony to watch the proceedings.
Dancers are piped back into the ballroom in a Grand March; the first dance is announced; sets are counted; the band strikes a chord; and the evening's dance programme begins.
There
are two Intervals, and the fun goes
on into the "wee sma'
hours". Brochure/Order
