The Washington State Parks Folk and Traditional Arts Program invites the public to the Summer Music and Dance Series at Cama Beach Historical State Park. The series brings music and dance to the park once a month in June, July and August. Live music and family square dances were a traditional part of 1930s summer activities at Cama Beach when the state park was a fishing resort. Performances and dances feature fiddle, guitar, bass, and banjo and experienced callers who aim to get everyone on their feet and dancing. Whether you’re staying at a cabin on the beach, or just visiting for the day, stick around and join in these fun, family friendly activities!
