Rueda-In-The-Park 11th Annual Potluck Beach Party in LA - Sunday, July 19th

Greetings San Diego Casineros!
Every year in LA, there is a HUGE anniversary rueda party to celebrate the tradition of Rueda-In-The-Park Organization who maintained their commitment to teaching rueda in a park for now the last 11 years.  It went from one chapter to now four!! One of them is in Santa Ana (Orange County). Thanks to this organization, more people have learned and continue to learn rueda de casino. They are our dear friends who make rueda fun all the time! San Diego peeps have gone to this event in the past. Let go celebrate with them!

Bring yourself and a food and/or drink to share and we will provide the location and music. It is always a great party where we invite all the bailadores/casineros/reggaetoneros/timberos, etc. to come out and help us celebrate our love of la music cubana and have fun.
