The Rose City Salsa Festival is April 12-15 at the Hilton in Vancouver, WA. This is Portland’s festival but it’s a little shorter drive for us this year, and they are having casino and rueda, with Duane, Mike and Simona, and Katy Hernandez! http://www.rosecitysalsafestival.com/workshops-2

The full pass is $110 for Fri and Sat night parties, plus all day Sat and Sun workshops. If you pay for workshops individually they’re $20 each. Or a Saturday workshop pass is $60, and the Saturday party is $35.

I expect there will be several people driving down Saturday and returning Sunday. It would be great to have a small crowd from Seattle. The hotel is $114 + tax per room, and that’s the total cost for up to 4 people.

We’ll figure out carpools as the time gets closer, but in the meantime you can let me know if you’re interested in carpooling.

Just wanted to make sure everyone is aware of this, as well as the Atlanta festival in December.
I’m thinking of going to the San Francisco festival, which is Feb 16-19. Please let me know if you are interested in sharing a room. I will probably fly down on Fri, return Mon or maybe just Sat-Mon. The hotel where it’s held is right BART.
