Hurricane Irene spared us, with only two weeks to overcome the hurdles of flooding we pulled off another great tango weekend!

Thank You for joining us, by all accounts it still keeps getting better every year and this year really topped it all, not only because of the full moon and the great weather, but because of all of you that joined us for three nights of great dancing in the wonderful ballroom, two delicious meals with tasty wines and fantastic dinner shows and a special community spirit.
