WURSTFEST: LOVE THOSE SAUSAGES

We remember the day when the
grounds of Wurstfest were teaming with
sausage-eating, clogger-loving folks. The WurstHalle
was the perfect venue for our twenty-two cloggers
since we could spread out and show off all the dancers at one shot. The standing-room-only crowd, which
surrounded us on three sides, encroached upon the dance floor, applauding
loudly when we first took the “stage.”
These folks clapped spontaneously throughout the first number. The dancers’ feet and legs were flying in all
directions. When the Fire on the
Mountain Cloggers demonstrate TRADITIONAL clog
dancing, that means that each individual dances whatever steps he or she
pleases. The only requirement for the
dancers is to keep the rhythm of the music.
The Wurstfest
was an ideal venue for our old time dance steps. We soon became accustomed to the roars of
approval from the audience during our entire performance. We have fond memories of Wurstfest.
