Salsa Cancelled!

We're very sorry to disappoint, but we hope you'll come out and dance in 2015

Salsa is cancelled tonight due to inclement weather, bad roads, and Paco's health.

Besides the weather taking such an icy turn, Paco isn't feeling well and has decided to stay put for the evening to recover his health.



Please keep an eye out for salsa dancing and classes next year!

Happy Veterans Day!

We're offering free coffee to all Veterans to show our appreciation for their service.  Thank you!
