General Notes
Pokingbrook welcomes all without regard to gender. We say we were founded in 1974 because that's when we first gathered to learn the morris. We are in the habit of celebrating our anniversaries based on 1975, when we first danced out for May Day. For our 10th anniversary, members created a tradition called Beverwyck (the original Dutch name of the City of Albany), and continue to dance, and create new dances for, that tradition.
