Hola Tangueros-- If you are planning on attending the Tango Fireworks 2003 Festival in Long Beach, California June 27-July 5, the room block at the Long Beach Hilton is filling up FAST, in fact, it is almost full now for July 4 & 5. If you want to stay at the Hilton (where everything is happening), you need to make your reservations no later than this Friday, May 30. After Friday, we cannot guarantee you a room at the Hilton for the 4th and 5th. We are setting up an overflow room block at a nearby hotel within a few blocks walking distance, but we will not have details on that until next Tuesday. PLEASE, if you want to get a room at the Hilton, call (562) 983-3400 RIGHT AWAY! If you need a roommate, please e-mail us at lin...@apurotango.com. This is one of the premiere tango events in the United States, so don't miss this fabulous week of tango, with instructors Gustavo Naviera & Giselle Anne, Gloria & Eduardo Arquimbau, Carlos Copello & Jorgelina Guzzi, Milena Plebs & Ezequiel Farfaro, Julio Balmaceda & Corina De La Rosa, Diego Di Falco & Carolina Zokalski, Aurora Lubiz & Jorge Firpo and the COLOR TANGO ORCHESTRA.
