Hi,
I thank you all too! All of the sponsors and political supporters that made it possible to resume Salsa on the Beach this summer 2012. The last 2 years have been very disappointing!! I have been going to Orchard Beach since I was 2 years old growing up in the Bronx, and now I am 51 and living upstate around the Bear Mountain area. I drive all the way down there because there is No Place like Orchard Beach to get your Salsa on!!! I love the vibe , the music and the fun. Please keep it going forever!........ And I pray that maybe the concessions at the stage area will reopen again!!
