We had another great outdoor event last night at the History center! I think there were 50 people there for the lesson, and more came to dance to Cafe Accordion's great music. The weather was perfect - thanks for coming out! And we also had a great turnout for the Tuesday lesson, as well as the party, afterward.<br>

No dancing, but lots of fun anyway: "There will be another Dancers With Waves event, this time on Monday, July 20, at 5 p.m. or so. It will again be at the Southeast corner of LAKE CALHOUN, across from the archery bales where Nick Aguilar can be seen splitting apples, William Tell-like on occasion. Nick may demonstrate this skill for the apple eating public on the 20th. Bring some food and drink, lawn chairs, etc. Alcohol is prohibido, sort of, at Minneapolis parks.
Your Hosts, Nick and Jimito"<br><br>Then, July 25th is another outdoor dance at Minnehaha park!! 7PM to 11PM<br>

</div>All these events, plus some others coming up next year, have me thinking that I need to train in another performance group to entertain and demonstrate tango here in the Twin Cities. Let me know if you have an interest in being part of this group. As you know, performance tango is different than social tango, so being good at one doesn't guarantee skill at the other. But it can certainly be challenging, and a lot of fun! I will be selecting people over the next weeks, and training will begin when I can determine a possible time. In the meantime, Thursday 8:00 classes are a good way to prepare for what we'll work on.<br>
