HACDA is an all-volunteer, non-profit, CDSS affiliate dance organization formed in the summer of 1999, whose primary mission is to maintain traditional American folk dancing (Contra and Traditional Squares) in the Harrisburg, Pennsylvania area.

HACDA is the successor to the dance series started in 1991 by Joan Bare as a monthly dance.  We now have two dances a month, on the second and fourth Fridays, year-round.

We are always looking for volunteers. Please contact us if you are interested in assisting with the dance as a volunteer or board member. We need sound people, people to help with the gate and people who can house bands and callers.
