On behalf of Nick Aguilar - Dancers With Waves:

DANCERS WITH WAVES will be sponsoring a canoeing/kayaking/picnicking/dancing
in the grass summer evening event at Lake Calhoun on [TONIGHT] Monday, July
20, 2009 . This will be at the little beach across from the archery range on
the south side of Lake Calhoun , not the big, main beach which is a few
hundred yards west of this little beach. The sun sets very late this day and
it’s wonderful to enjoy the evening sun.   Nick will be there at 4:30 pm for
the early birds. We stay until we’re kicked out or arrested. This event is
open to any tango dancers and their friends and family.

DANCERS WITH WAVES, a group within the Twin Cities’ tango community, was
founded by three, fun, groovy, middle-aged guys, Jim Dunn, Mike Ludvigsen
and Nick Aguilar,  to gather tango dancers to socialize outdoors, enhance
the cohesiveness of our community and  get to know each other a little
better. These events are always fun!

We supply 3 or 4 canoes and kayaks for paddling (hence our name DANCERS WITH
WAVES), and usually people paddle just off shore for a few minutes then
return to the beach and let someone else try. We insist that you wear a life
vest while paddling. We supply these. If you have a boat you’d like to
share, bring it down. If you don’t want to paddle, you can just hang out and
enjoy the evening sun. Also, this year Nick will bring two sets of archery
gear if you want to try target archery.

Bring your own beverages, a snack to share, napkins, plastic/metal
silverware, cooler, towels, blankets, lawn chairs, bug repellent, etc.

We’ll have a small boom box with tango and other music for your listening
and dancing pleasure. Don’t forget, we’ll be dancing on the grass.

Please, tango dancers new to the community, young and old, don’t be shy.
Just show up, introduce yourself, paddle and dance; we old timers are a very
friendly lot. All of you that have been to these events, please talk it up.
The more the merrier.

There is a small parking lot next to this beach with a few meters that
you’ll have to feed. Otherwise, you need an annual parking permit from the
Mpls. park board. Or you can park on the street, but you’ll have to walk a
little ways to get to the beach. Last year I talked to a park policeman who
said they rarely enforce parking rules at this lot, but you never know.

There are many new tango dancers now; so, instructors, and anyone else who
has a tango list, please forward this announcement to your students and
friends. Questions?   E-mail Nick at girlie1918 at comcast.net or call at
763-780-0309.  See www.mntango.org Events Calendar under Monday, July 20 for
a map to help navigate your way : )

With Happy Feet, Dancers With Waves
