HISTORY of

its
14th

- original
creator
was
Lucille
Krasne
1997
(from
her
Hit & Run
Tango,
HIT
and
RUN
TANGO,
or
Hit
n Run
Tango,
they
were
usually
just
a one
time
tango
dance
she
set
up
around
town
- any
where!
for
tango
dancers
to
have
fun
dancing
and
to
expose
NYC
to

Your
Official
Host/or
DJ's are
Trey Parker, Gaya Martin, Richard Lipkin
and Rick Castro.
Rick and/or
Trey usually
do the announcements,
Gaya Schedules
the Dance Instructors (contact
any member
if you are
interested
in Teaching
or assisting
with this milonga
in some capacity).
This
milonga
is now
in its
11th year (1999). The
history is;
Ko,
Yardiel,
Sanae,
Karen
started
this
milonga
after
Yardiel
suggested
this
location
as an
alternative
to a
different
milonga
that
was way
uptown & indoors
from
them.
Ko was
the first
Dj,
he also
came
up with
the name.
Ko, Rick
and Trey
(plus
Dj Guy
for several
years)
have
been
instrumental
in keeping
this
milonga
happening
every
Sunday
since
its first
year.
The rest
up to today have
all stepped
in at
one point
since
to maintain,
help,
assist
in some
needed
function
to continue
this
great
milonga.
In
2004
we created
a committee
to insure
the continuity
and excellence
of this
beautiful
summer
milonga
for all
here
in NYC,
tango
dancers
from
around
the world
and visitors
to learn
of its
joy we
feel
it offers
to all.
In 2008
the managing
structure
of the
South
Street
Seaport
has changed
and
as everyone
are having
more
& higher
expenses with the major addition of the Seaport Museum Pier Rental Fee.
Facing greater
financial
burdens are
now requiring
certain proticals
& regulations
to be followed
along with
fees for
any use of
the pier.
Now in 2010 the committe is Rick, Trey, Richard, Gaya and Yesim - Plus if you are interested in being part of the just talk to any of us at the event for more details.
Thanks
For Reading
and have
a great time
dancing tango on
the pier.
