Chicago Salsa Congress Volunteering Opportunity

Hello everybody, 

I'd like to announce you one of the biggest salsa events in the Midwest: The 2009 Chicago International Salsa Congress. 

It will be held on February 12-15 on the Westin O'Hare Hotel, in Rosemont, IL. It features 4 nights of performance & open dance, and 3-days of full-day workshops. You can find more info and register/pay at


Since it is not a cheap event, we were looking for ways where our students can participate. And I'm happy to tell you that the organizers are offering us Volunteering spots for the Congress. Here you help in the organization of the event, usually for half of the day and the other half you can stay either dancing or taking workshops for free. Parking is also paid for!

This is a very good opportunity to participate if you are on a budget. Let me know (at salsa@uchicago.edu) ASAP if you are interested, since shifts are quickly being filled out! Let me know what are the best days/times you can help. 

Hope to see you in lessons soon! 

Cheers, 

Felipe
