Kimmswick dance -- circa 1988?

This short video begins with a view of the Kimmswick T-shirt made by Bob Borcherding with artwork by Merryl Winstein. Then I'm across the field when I turn on the camera to capture Bill Rintz, Rhys Jones and Mike B(?) playing "Rachel" for a dance, probably around 2 or 3am. Listen hard and you might hear it over the crickets. Apparently I then hustle over to the dance pavilion to get more, but only arrive in time for the last few beats. Andrew Limoni is calling, and the dance floor is uncharacteristically spacious. Kimmswick was and still is a dance weekend put on by the Childgrove Country Dancers in St. Louis, MO, but not any longer at this wonderful (now gone) outdoor pavilion.
