Ukrainian dancers from across Western Canada participated in Yorkton’s Kalyna Dance Festival from May 5 – 8 at the Yorkton Regional High School. Dancers over the age of 12 and under 19 were adjudicated for their skill and hard work in small group, large group, solos, duets and trios. Scholarships will be given out in the coming month to the adjudicated groups. Homemade perogies and other traditional Ukrainian cuisine were available for purchase in the cafeteria. Virsky’s Zaporozhi Spear Dance was performed in commemoration of the Holodomor Holocaust of 1933.
