A few of us from Catron County will be at the ABQ Folk Fest. If you decide to become a member here at Mudcat, we can PM each other and figure out a way to meet there. In the meantime, here's a link to the FOLKMADS, the NM folk music and dance society website.

Here's some info, pasted from the site to get you started:
