As the younger group grew in their folk traditions and their enthusiasm, many of the parents thought it looked like fun and formed the Adult Swedish Folk Dancers . Since then, the group has changed their name to the Lindsborg Folkdanslag . While the new name is more Swedish, it also avoids the occasional confusion with the high school group. The Lindsborg Folkdanslag performed together for the first time at Svensk Hyllningsfest in 1971. The folk dance group at present has approximately 12 couples, fiddlers, and one accordionist who perform regularly with the group.
Members come from many backgrounds and professions and enjoy meeting once a week.
Their folk dance interests have grown to include dances from Denmark, Norway, and Finland, with variations of the polska, waltz, schottis, hambo, polka, majurka, and engelska. Performances often include opportunities for audience participation, allowing members of the group a time to share their enthusiasm with folks of all ages. The dancers perform in folk costumes made to resemble what their relatives wore more than a century ago. They are often called upon to include a Swedish-style fashion show within their performance schedule. They have also traveled to surrounding states, including Missouri, Colorado, Oklahoma, Arkansas, and Nebraska.
