KOLD – CBS – News Came Too!

KOLD – CBS – News came to call…

As I stand on the slippery slope of time, our second festival slides off into the warm glow of the evening sunset… but soon, very soon the sun will rise again on another celebration of loving everything tango Argentino! I am missing all of you , my friends. Tonight we plug along trying to make some sense out of the remaining chaos and the whirlwind.

Still we hang on to the memories of love, affection and scrumptious tandas!

Fox News came to call…

The crumbs are all swept up.
The chaos returns to some semblance of order (well…).
The books are done.
The files are filed.
The checks are written.
The videos are being edited.
The survey is almost done.
Correspondences are almost caught up.

My shoes are sitting cold and scuffed.

Thank You Everyone!!!

This festival was bigger than all of us! To say it was a success is not only redundant it is incomplete.

Thank you everyone!!!

The Tucson Tango Festival this year was a milestone, a landmark and a benchmark for what tango is, will be and always has been:
The best partner dance on the planet!
It will go forward for many of you (as well as us) as a touchstone and reminder of what tango truly is! We saw some lights go on for many of you demonstrating that you really GOT IT!! Isn’t that grand!

To say thank you feels contrite and ineloquent and yet, what else can we say? To thank each of you individually will take a lifetime. To thank you all now is paramount in our mind… so we must say a few by name really quick:
Thank you…
Judy Miller for all the media exposure and for filling the TTS beginner’s classes. They were an obvious success!
Sally Allison for giving us an Oscar at last nights hangover milonga and the flowers were beautiful.

A special thanks to Robin and Andi (YOU ROCK) for taking over the cooking when things got overly hectic at the Instructors BBQ.
Another special thanks to Skip (from San Diego) for making an emergency trip to get a propane bottle that actually had propane in it.

Thanks to all for handing our fliers and letting us put them on tables at milongas and festivals all over the country!

Thank you Tucson Tango Society Board and Members for your support and involvement. We are tickled that the beginners classes were able to help raise funds. We look forward to future on-going collaborations for the benefit of the Arizona tango community.

Love, Light & Gratitude,
Rusty & Jo
