Next Saturday's class is suspended for the July 4th weekend. It is hoped some will be at Nora's Tango Week in San Mateo. Other than that, have a safe and happy 4th. We are back to our normal Saturday classes on July 13. There is no change in the Wednesday class schedule or the Monday Practica at Jacobs.
We look at another first weekend milonga on August 2; the following day Kenny Bell of Sacramento will conduct classes.
In September Eduardo Saucedo will returns to Modesto to conduct workshops and dance with us at our milonga.
