"TANGOing the Walk" Pic #2

Here we are, Jeremias and I, tangoing the 2.5 mile United Way walk in the Naples Florida sun! We're flanked here by tangueras Alla "Tango" carrying the Naples Tango/Permission Seduction™ sign, and Ella Holmes carrying water and handheld fans. Roni Olson was just outside the picture frame with my iPod and speakers, as was Marsha Rubin who followed us with my Flip camcorder. Just behind us Daniele Kellams and Ricardo were tangoing too, and sometimes we danced alongside each other. We weren't elegant in our sneakers, but they were great on concrete and asphalt!

The United Way raised $45,000 with this event, last Saturday's "Walk for the Way", a whopping 40% over last year's walk and 21% over this year's projections!  (Way to go, Walk Chairman Craig Bamberg!) Now the fundraising collaboration between Naples Tango and the United Way continues: for every Naples Tango student that is a current United Way contributor, or that enrolls in our courses or boot camps through a United Way referral, I will donate 20% of their course fees to the United Way!
