Acker Night in Prescott, Arizona

While waiting to meet up with Loring

Ken and I met contra dancing; we love to dance! This year in addition to a contra dance, we got a little improv dancing in at Acker night.


The Huffs started taking photos
Each year after the Christmas parade, Prescott hosts a wonderful night of music at various retail outlets in the downtown area. Each location has a large brown paper bag to place
donations for music scholarships. A family with the last name of Acker initiated and funded the costs for the evening.
Loring arrived and other people started dancing

This year we were lucky enough to be in town for the event. It was cold so I dressed in many layers
- padded vest and the works. Ken and Loring were more savvy and kept moving to stay warm. I had made a
thermos of hot chocolate, but many stops had treats and warm drinks.

It was a great night of music that varied from Greek Orthodox choir to tuba group to bluegrass to solo cello and audience sing a long. 



What  fun - two men twirling me!
Thank you, Prescott and thank you Loring!  And thank you to the Huffs for taking and sending us these photos.
