When last you maypole? Maypole dance is a traditional folk dance that's done around a tall pole, with dancers weaving a pattern around it using ribbons. Can't go to leeward and not...... shake a leg and take in a bit of arwe culture. For first timers, Christal and Moralis did well! 👏 #maypole #maypoledancing #tradition #stvincentandthegrenadines #saintvincentandthegrenadines #vc3tv #vc3 | VC3
