We are looking for a nice location for a social dance about once a month. Preferably it would have
the feel of a social, public place (like a coffee shop, club, bar, or restaurant) as apposed to a private
party atmosphere. If you know of such a place, please contact Rich.

Social Dances -- Not a Milonga or a Practica
Some people just want to dance -- that's cool -- no Milonga etiquette (tandas or cabeseos) no supervision or exercises.
- Fridays, at Madonna Inn, 100 Madonna Rd., SLO.
8:00-10:00, about 5 tangos will be played when the ballroom band takes its break a little after the top of the hour. (cancled if in conflict with other special tango events)
No cover.
- Sundays, at The Oddfellows' Hall, 520 Dana St., SLO.
7:00-9:00, Traditional tango music as well as alternative/fusion.
$10 for the evening (or $35 for 4 week series)
