Tango Fusion Sunday in The Park

Today' featured artist in the Schroon Lake Arts Council's Sunday in the Park Concert series will make you want to tango!

Tango Fusion Dance Company, from Saratoga Springs, bring their version of synthesized latin dance, argentine tango, ballet, jazz, modern dance and theater to the Town Park at 12 noon.

The group uniquely combines the styles and backgrounds of the company's dancers, which creates a fun, passionate, innovative movement that is both beautiful and evocative of Tango's cultural origins.

From their official bio:

"Tango Fusion emerged in the dance world as a showcase created by Diane Lachtrupp. Tango Fusion went on to perform at the American Theater for Actors in Manhattan and received rave reviews from The New York Times. The Times reported, " Tango Fusion must be the happiest celebration of that dance to arrive in the city for a very long time...production values, music and imaginative staging were first rate." Tango Fusion's success continued to grow when it was invited to perform in New York City at the Town Hall Tango Fest and the Fifth Annual Tango Congress in Argentina".

July 4th: What It Was Like For Uncle Mark Piper

As a musician there is nothing more satisfying than being able to play at an important event in front of your own community. Schroon Lake is special because everyone feels like family even if they are just visiting. In spite of the heat, the energy of the crowd was amazing and I think people had a wonderful time at the beach. Uncle Mark and Friends were really thankful to the chamber to be included in this year‘s roster. Looking out over the crowd reminded me how lucky we are to live here and how grateful I am to be able to share my music here.

From Sharron:

I want to thank everyone for all of the followers and likes I am receiving here ! I will be unable to participate in the craft fairs this summer. I will have my 2019 Schroon Lake and Paradox Lake calendar if someone is interested in purchasing one. They are $22.00 and you can leave me a message. I will mail them for postage or if you are in town I will arrange to meet you somewhere. I will also leave a couple at Paradox Crafts!
