Pier 121 Marina (map)

Hola SalsaHolics!

Sunset Salsa Sail
? Sound to good to pass up, right? We worked together with the Chamonix II to get this event together and we are excited it's happening-AGAIN. We had a great time last year- be sure to check out the pictures. The boat sails at 7:30 (so get there early!) with dinner included, free soda, juice and bottled water. It's BYOB, so bring whatever you like to drink and some to share. We have a machine for frozen margaritas and pina coladas, so feel free to bring some rum and tequila. We will be playing salsa, merengue and bachata on the sail. Bring your iPod if you have a couple favorite songs! You can dance on deck in the open air or inside the cabin. We will be cruising around Lake Lewisville, dancing into the night! They have bean bags to lounge on while you watch the sun set. These sails are usually $59, but we got a great rate of $49 for the whole event- dinner included! This event is limited to 60 people so we have room to dance, so buy your tickets early! We'll send the invitation to 5 other Meetup groups, and open ticket sales to the general public on July 1st. Hope to see you there!

Click here to log on to www.BigDCats.com to buy tickets to the event. An RSVP here will NOT reserve your space on the boat... but we would like to know if you're coming! smile They will have your name at the dock if you have purchased tickets. Lots of parking, directions coming soon. BE THERE AT 7pm so you don't miss the boat. smile

    MOST IMPORTANTLY, FROM HIGHYWAY 121 YOU WILL EXIST STANDRIDGE AND GO NORTH UNTIL THE FIRST STOP SIGN. THEN MAKE A LEFT AND FOLLOW THE STREET TO THE DEAD END. GO RIGHT INTO MARINA PROPERTY AND THEN MAKE ONE LAST RIGHT BETWEEN THE SLALOM SHOP BUILDING AND THE WATERWORKS BUILDING. DRIVE TO THE WATER AND PARK ON YOUR RIGHT. FROM THE PARKING LOT YOU WILL SEE THE TALL WHITE, YELLOW AND RED MAST NEXT TO CHARLIE?S RESTAURANT.

    Hey, any thoughts on carpooling? If you live far away or would like to be a DD, add it to your RSVP.
