Flatfoot Dancing, Geocaching And A Coal Mine Rescue Competition, This West Virginia Week


Listen Later

On this West Virginia Week, some folks can't help but dance when they hear traditional old-time fiddle and banjo tunes. We hear from a few seasoned flatfooters about keeping their tradition alive.

Also, in this episode, we will dive deeper into the challenges surrounding the implementation of a new law banning food dyes in schools.

Plus, we'll hear about a rescue competition for coal miners, as well as a hobby called geocaching that is shaping tourism in West Virginia’s Eastern Panhandle. 

Chris Schulz is our host this week. Our theme music is by Matt Jackfert.
