It's That Time Again!!!
Here is a memory shot of the Orange County Clogging Competition 2008
The Orange County Fair and the Orange Cloggers are teaming up once again to bring you the Orange County Clogging Competition for 2010!
Saturday, July 24, 2010
at
Historic Montpelier
From 10 am till we're done
With teams from across Virginia and beyond, and most importantly
YOU!
We welcome all teams to our 4th Annual Event which now appears to be the biggest clogging competition in the state!
As one of the Directors said, she loves coming to this event. It's like coming to a family reunion. We know each other, we hear about each other, but we never really get to see each other except at events like this.
It meant a lot to hear this from her. The clogging community is like a big family and we pride ourselves at being able to put together a competition that we think of more as a chance for teams to come together in a family atmosphere to see each other, show off what we can do, and most importantly have fun together.
Keep this in mind if you are debating about coming or just not certain if your team is ready. This is about having fun, but it is also amazing what an effect participating can have on a group. It not only shows them what other teams are doing, but it gets them excited, more strongly enthused, boosts team morale, and broadens their view by showing how we may be on separate teams, but we are one big clogging family.
We welcome back all our returning teams and our first time guests. Already confirmed are:
Sundance Express
Little Switzerland Cloggers
Crossroads Cloggers
(and their team has the most incredible story unfolding about their group)
Here are a couple of pics from the competition last year

and here is an email from one of the participants regarding last years competition:
Dear Frank & the Orange Cloggers:
I want to congratulate you on having a wonderful event at the fair. Our team
looked so forward to coming back this year. Everyone is so nice and helpful.
The fair gives a great setting for a very enjoyable day. Most competitions you
go to you are in a building for a long day but your venue is wonderful. We love
the food vendors and especially loved the piglet races. Since we are from
Pennsylvania it seems like our team sits on the outside of the clogging world
and we appreciated all your comments and the fact that you included us in your
family.
Thank you, Frank, and all the Orange Cloggers.
As always, this will be an outdoor event at the Orange County Fair. So while we will be under a tent, be prepared for the weather.
The Orange County Fair has also moved to the other side of the road, so we will now be right on Route 20 in Orange County.
