[TSOM-Announce] Midwest Tango Festival

MORE TANGO HONORS FOR MINNESOTA.

The Twin Cites has been chosen for the Midwest Tango Festival. The festival will be held the weekend of November 25th, 26th, and 27th (yes -- the Thanksgiving weekend). The organizers found Minnesota to be active and welcoming with a vibrant tango community. I know they were correct in their assessment.

The organizers of the Festival are looking for "crash" housing (a cot, a day bed, a mattress, a shower, etc.) for about 12 experienced festival team members who will  come in from afar to make the Midwest Tango Festival professional and beneficial for the participants.

About 150 to 200 out-of-town participants will find lodging at our local hotels. All they need is a smile and, perhaps, a tanda. Lessons and milongas go on all day.

The festival will also need volunteers from our local tango community;  for example, venue set-up, venue clean-up, decorations, refreshments. Any special touches, such as a resource for empanadas or tango-related decorations would also be appreciated. 

Please contact Scott Chase if you can help.
The local team members will be rewarded by the festival organizers.
