Hola SalsaHolics!
Salsa and Tango Sail? Sounds to good to pass up, right? We worked with the Chamonix II to get this event together. We have done it before with Salsa (check out the pics on MamboDallas.com) and we are excited to bring in the Argentine Tango crowd as well.
The boat sails at 10:00 PM (so be there at 9:30!) with unlimited free soda, juice and bottled water. It’s BYOB, so bring whatever you like to drink and some to share. The boat will have a machine for frozen margaritas and pina coladas, so feel free to bring some rum and tequila. We will be cruising around Lake Lewisville, dancing into the night! There are bean bags to lounge on and chill.
Music:
We will be playing tango/milogna/vals (both traditional & alt/neo) and salsa with some merengue, cha cha, & bachata thrown in for good measure. (Think of tango tandas with long salsa cortina.)
(Note to tango crowd from Ashiq, if you are registering for the event, could you please send an email to ashiqur@gmail.com. This will help in customizing the playlist for you. Also, do send your song requests.)
Dance Floor:
We will have a custom wooden floor inside the main cabin. Of course, you can dance anywhere on deck in the open air.
This event is limited to 80 people so we have room to dance, so buy your tickets early! Hope to see you there!
Light snacks included in this cruise.
Price: $39.00 Adults
