My subjective impressions:

Singing - I enjoyed the Songs For A Sunday Morning singaround. Several people told me how much they had enjoyed the Shanty Singing on Saturday night. And I always enjoy hearing The Beans.

Dancing - I particularly enjoyed the klezmer dance sessions, and the beginner's contra session I led on Saturday night, of course.

I was going to comment that I saw a young belly dancer dancing next to the jam in the hallway, but not an elderly one - but I just realized who you must be referring to. You'll find her name in the program book, in the section that commemorates friends of the festival who have died in the past year. I haven't seen Judy in a few years, but I never thought of her as "geriatric". I remember her dancing with a sword balanced on her head, whirling around, and having the sword keep turning when she stopped. And, having travelled together with her for three weeks as part of a tour of Belgium and France with the Green Mountain Volunteers, I can tell you that she was always a delight to be with.
