One month warning: Colorado Milonguero Weekend 2001
Hi. I hope everyone coming has their airline reservations. At this point all the housing with local tangueros is essentially booked. 70 or so from outside Colorado are confirmed, but I anticipate over 100 visitors, plus 80 - 120 locals at each event. There are many local teachers or organizers coming this year. Here are lodging suggestions: - http://www.tango.org/dance/Dance_Lodging.html Without a car, the downtown Hyatt Regency ($70) (303) 295-1234 is your best bet. Budget Host Inn ($50/60) (303) 458-5454, or the hostels are your cheapest alternatives. * How many from your city? * If you have not yet filled out a registration, attached is a pdf file of registrations, or else download: - http://www.tango.org/dance/LabReg2001.pdf Please register EVEN IF YOU ARE ATTENDING "A-LA-CARTE." This will enable me to manage attendance and negotiate with the hotel for next year. The demographic information will NOT be shared, except for providing names, cities and emails of all the registrants to each other. If you are coming with a group, would one person collect the registrations, and mail them to me. Full UPDATED information about the event is at the website: - http://www.tango.org/dance/LabDay2001.pdf Note the following additions: - Eduardo Arquimbo and Gloria are coming in the week before, so early arrivals have something very exciting to do. He'll teach "Tango Club" on Wednesday and Thursday. - Special "Ambassador Passes" at $50 give you attendance to all milongas plus the Pablo Aslan musicality workshop (a savings of $10.
