NA-W: Dec 6 Holiday Roaring 20's Ball in Denver, CO

[PatP1013@AOL.COM]

The Roaring 20’s:  The time when a new craze for dancing swept Paris and made 
Tango spectacularly accepted by the country of its birth.  Who knows?  Would 
we all be dancing this dance, all over the world, were it not for the 20’s?
 
To honor this fabulous era, Tango Colorado will celebrate the season with its 
Holiday Roaring 20’s Ball on Saturday, December 6.  It will be a fun time of 
return in dress, food and excitement. Where? The Denver Turnverein, the home 
base of Tango Colorado, which has a glorious ballroom, with recently and 
greatly improved acoustics.  What?  We’ll have 20 (of course!) incredible gifts, 
offered through raffle, such as festival passes from major venues, shoes, private 
dance lessons, etc.  Playing will be great DJ music by Tom Stermitz, as well 
as our local orchestra, Extasis, with not four (as normal), but eight members, 
all Colorado Symphony musicians.  Tango Colorado funded their leader to study 
in Buenos Aires several years ago and they continue to expand their play list 
and, most importantly, they are more and more tuned to our dancers.
 
We expect 200 local dancers from all over the state of Colorado.  We would 
love to have you join us!  In addition to Tango Colorado’s milonga, there will 
be a Friday night milonga at the Mercury Café in Denver.  Classes? You bet!  
Tom Stermitz is bringing in Kat and Felipe from San Francisco for workshops 
concentrating on Tango Turns,  Alterations and Boleos.  While they have been very 
popular and repeat teachers at the Portland Tango Festivals, it will be their 
first time in Denver.
 
Need housing?  We’ll find it for you, either in private homes or we’ll 
recommend hotels nearby.  You may call me at 303-466-3820 or contact me at

The cost for the Tango Colorado Roaring 20’s is $25 for members and $30 for 
non-members.  For class prices you may contact Tom Stermitz at

Come roar in Colorado.
