Larry Jennings notes that the eponymous festival is NEFFA.

Perhaps substitute a ones swing for the do-si-do in A1, but do note that either way the figure selection lends itself best to short lines. Somewhat ironic given that the exceptionally long lines at contemporary NEFFAs are anything but friendly to such a dance...
