Why Register Early

Early Bird Discount – Why Pay Early?

Here I sit writing his on Thursday, October 9th, 2008 putting in another full day of planning this festival – Joanne and I started making plans for the Tucson Tango Festival in 2007 – last night I counted up my time investment so far as and I am already over 150 hours deep in the website, scheduling, venue shopping, reservation making, graphics, et cetera and the festival is still 5 months away – I estimate I will have around 1200 hours in by the time the event actually arrives – add in the hours of Joanne and our volunteers and this really is a large undertaking.

The financial returns are ridiculously low when calculated by the hour, if we were looking for monetary returns on our time and money – but truly for the first time in our lives we are investing our time and money in something much richer and larger than profit! It feels good to be free of the burden of striving for things. Thank you tango!!!

Our motives for creating this festival are simple we love tango. We love to share the joys of tango. We love our tango community! We want to pay back all the time and investments others have so generously given so we could be here sharing the joys tango with you!

Before we open the gates at the Tucson Tango Festival we will have invested large amount of cash: the venue, flooring, airfare, instructors, DJs, printing, marketing, room blocks, the bus for the Guerilla Milonga, a sound system, and things are still popping up daily

We offer you a chance to be our partner in creating this tango festival. By paying early you are helping to finance the festival and in turn, we offer you a discount for displaying your support and for making this dream come true.

We appreciate your support and your presence in our life and at our festival. Let’s tango on! This festival will be an outstanding event, we promise you that much!

With Love, Respect and Gratitude,
Rusty Cline
– Organizer of the Tucson Tango Festival
