Subject: More on Party Manners

Cherie, Hi.  I have traveled little outside of Colorado for tango except
for attending tango weeks or going to BA or Montreal, which are exceptions.
I did go to Sante Fe for a long weekend in September of 98 and was a little
disappointed.  The Friday night milonga at the studio was very small that
night (about 10 people) and everyone was very friendly and I had a good
time.  The next night was a huge "Milonga Under the Stars" where I did not
get asked to dance much.

In general, I think visitors here in Colorado find it extremely friendly and
welcoming.  I have gotten a lot of positive feedback.  However, we have
done very little in the way of formally introducing visitors; it is done
much
more on an individual basis.  I am always trying to introduce new people
and visitors to others and generally this works well.  However, a good
friend of mine was visiting NYC recently and told me of some more
formal arrangements, which I think we should consider trying, like things
you mentioned.  At our weekly practices, we often welcome out of town
visitors during the announcements.

Cammie.

P.S.  I think your thoughts on this topic are very valuable and hope they
will cause some good!
